When the commodities go up and the cost of transportation is going up, and the value of the dollar is going down, it's all going to translate to an 8 to 10 percent rise in food prices.
I know a man who gave up smoking, drinking, sex, and rich food. He was healthy right up to the day he killed himself.

Only people who have been allowed to practise freedom can have the grown-up look in their eyes.
We were the only black family in an estate with 1,000 white families. Liverpool being quite racist in the Sixties, it was a bit grim growing up.

I did not grow up a cinefile. No one in my family was in the film business or even anything close to it.
Your billion-dollar ideas don't show up in the middle of dramatic distraction. They show up when you have the business and personal discipline to make space for your creative mind to flourish.
