I could never have a better teacher in those days than my father.

I am flying back to New York as I write this. I will never forget these wonderful 35 days and I would go back to Copenhagen in a heartbeat to work there again.

I must hurry back to my house and my flowers in Monaco.

I was able to afford a car that didn't break down every five minutes.

Each component of the organism, like the individual in the social body, possesses the capacity for enjoyment of the self through sharing with others.

Laughter is timeless. Imagination has no age. And dreams are forever.
