Books, like proverbs, receive their chief value from the stamp and esteem of the ages through which they have passed.

What I learned at Oxford has been used to great advantage throughout my business career.

The overwhelming majority of my rated wealth consists of investments in companies that produce goods and services.

My wealth is not a subject I relish discussing.

I'm really connected to people, and my relationships with people are paramount, so I write about relationships, particularly strong female ones. In my family, there were six girls born in five years. We were best friends. And my parents raised all of us as first-class citizens.

I think a lot of people would probably assume that I had a bad relationship with LSU, and I don't think that was ever the case.

Working with people like Jennifer Aniston and Jason Sudeikis is such a blessing because I've watched them a great deal. I grew up with 'Friends' and always aspired to work with someone from that cast. Jason is just such an amazing comedian.

I treat people who write me the way my friends and I all treat each other when we go to each other for advice, which is sometimes with supreme cruelty.
