“The final key to the way I promote is bravado. I play to people’s fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That’s why a little hyperbole never hurts.”
—Donald Trump (b. 1946)
“If a problem is insoluble, it is Necessity. Leave it alone.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
