All you need to do is to get clients in the hotel door; then they hand you their wallets for five days.

I like walking into a smaller hotel where the desk clerk recognizes me.

I know I'm not the kind of person who's gonna wind up a walking jukebox, like many rock 'n' roll artists. They just play their hits and that's it. That doesn't appeal to me.

A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.
