When you're a self-made man, you start very early in life. In my case it was at 9 years old when I started bringing income into the family. You get a drive that's a little different, maybe a little stronger, than somebody who inherited.

I'm a gambler at heart. That's my life.

I'm far from being reclusive. I have 30- or 40-year friendships that I prefer to meeting new people. I go to an occasional party, but just because I don't go to a lot of events, and I'm not out in public all the time doesn't mean I'm anti-social or a recluse.

People listen when he starts nosing around, ... And it's more than nosing around when you throw hundreds of millions on the table.

I have some eye problems from when I was a pilot.

In case of doubt, do a little more than you have to.
