I learn from Larry Ellison every day. I’ve said this before: how is it to work with someone who thinks out of the box? Larry doesn’t see the walls at all; he does not see the box.

‘Hell is for Children’ is amazing to do every night and ‘Promises in the Dark’ and ‘Love Is a Battlefied,’ of course, but my absolute favorite would be ‘Heartbreaker.’ It’s the one that started everything, so it has a very special place in my heart.

Often I hear people say they do not have time to read. That’s absolute nonsense. In the one year during which I kept that kind of record, I read twenty-five books while waiting for people. In offices, applying for jobs, waiting to see a dentist, waiting in a restaurant for friends, many such places.
