Play off everyone against each other so that you have more avenues of action open to you.

Never make a decision. Let someone else make it… if it turns out to be the wrong one, you can disclaim it, and if it is right… abide by it.

Once you consent to some concession, you can never cancel it and put things back the way they are.

I don't remember any script I ever saw in Hollywood as wild or imagination- stretching as this autobiography yarn turned out to be … On the Charles Irving hoax.

I'm not a paranoid deranged millionaire. Damnit, I'm a billionaire.
