Nobody knows how long you're going to have life on Earth, so you really have to work at being joyous and happy.
Life begins at the end of your comfort zone. You won't find glory at the center of safety, but at its edge. You won't find love at a place where you are covered, but in the space where you are exposed. You gotta take some risks. You have to not only pick up the dice, but roll'em. So go ahead, take the gamble. You have nothing to lose except the chance to win. Life is not long enough to spend it on the sidelines.

I grew up in the 1920s and 1930s in a nouveau riche world, where money was spent wildly, and I'm still living in one!. . . The private schools are all jammed with long waiting lists; the clubs -- all the old clubs -- are jammed with long waiting lists today; the harbors are clogged with yachts; there has never been a more material society than the one we live in today. . . . Where is this 'vanished world' they talk about? I don't think the critics have looked out the window!

They'll answer the next day. With a movie, it's all, "Oh, I see this film as blah blah blah. " They don't know what you're talking about, they don't care.
