What is flirtatiousness but an argument that life must go on and on and on?
Kurt Vonnegut
Nobody in TV makes as much money as Robert Redford, who likes to make movies for several million dollars only on the condition that they contain some sort of social message.

To win you've got to stay in the game.
Money and success don't change people; they merely amplify what is already there.

We usually get what we anticipate.
To create power is like a magnet, this is true because this creative power operates like a magnet. Give it a strong clear picture of what you want and this creative power starts to work magnetizing conditions about you -- attracting to you things, resources, opportunities, circumstances and even the people you need, to help bring to pass in your outer life what you have pictured.
