Lo que quieres decir a la gente es: "Bueno, tú eres un ser humano maravilloso, sólo porque yo salga en la tele y haya ganado algo de dinero no significa que tenga éxito o que sea mejor que tú".

• Una sensación extraña, que recuerdo claramente, era un poderoso vínculo con los muertos, en particular con los que habían caído en la última hora o dos. Había tanta muerte alrededor que la vida parecía casi indecente. Los uniformes de algunos hombres estaban empapados de sangre. El suelo estaba empapado de sangre. Yo también maté.

• Hace un año, seis meses, pensaba que era artista. Ya no lo pienso, lo soy. Todo lo que era literatura ha caído de mí. No hay más libros que escribir, gracias a Dios. ¿Esto entonces? Esto no es un libro. Esto es difamación, calumnia, difamación de carácter. Esto no es un libro, en el sentido ordinario de la palabra. No, esto es un insulto prolongado, un escupitajo en la cara del Arte, una patada en los pantalones a Dios, el Hombre, el Destino, el Tiempo, el Amor, la Belleza... lo que quieras.

• Too often, executive compensation in the U.S. is ridiculously out of line with performance. That won't change, moreover, because the deck is stacked against investors when it comes to the CEO's pay. The upshot is that a mediocre-or-worse CEO - aided by his handpicked VP of human relations and a consultant from the ever-accommodating firm of Ratchet, Ratchet and Bingo - all too often receives gobs of money from an ill-designed compensation arrangement.
