“The power of publicity is more important than advertising.”

My mother’s genius was to put her finger on the gifts she saw in each of us, and make every one of us believe that that gift was uniquely ours.

I gave up years ago on the concept that you could actually have balance in your life, I think it’s a phantom chase.

If you’re having fun, you wind up innovating.

I think of my business and investments as extension of my family.

If I could set a world record, it would be that I have 150 business partners, all with thriving businesses of their own that started with nothing and I made the difference to make them all billionaires.

If you have an idea, immediately move on it. To start that fire and get it burning immediately…it’s everything.

I did everything in my power to give my brokers brand identity and clout in the market. I saw my job as parent to build them up and if I took care of them, then they would take care of their customer.

Don’t teach talent that isn’t there.

Especially if you’re over 40, shortening the term of your loan to pay it off sooner could make you mortgage-free in retirement.

I became a larger than life figure for one reason only. When you’re quoted in the ‘Wall Street Journal,’ the ‘New York Times,’ constantly as the expert in the business people assume you’re a lot bigger than you are. And then I had to run like hell to catch up with my own image.

When you’re a big money earner and your husband isn’t, it makes you question how feminine you are. I felt I was less feminine than if I was a supporting wife, or a second fiddle, or ‘Mrs. Higgins.

I have a theory and I really believe it. I think your worst weakness can become your greatest single strength.

The wheels of justice – they’re square wheels.

The difference between successful people and others is how long they spend time feeling sorry for themselves.

That ability to pop back up is true of anyone who succeeds in their field.

My mother is an amazing woman. Not only did she manage the entire household, she noticed a gift in each of her kids and instilled confidence in all of us that that gift would take us wherever we wanted to go.

You really want to get a headache? Try to understand Internet advertising.

Your face is a billboard advertising your philosophy of life!

Advertising is not merely an assembly of competing messages; it is a language itself which is always being used to make the same general proposal

Abstract art: a construction site for high fashion, for advertising, for furniture.

People ultimately get what they deserve on TV.

What people end up watching is what the advertising end up glomming onto and promoting.

Advertising in the final analysis should be news.

Money coming in says I’ve made the right marketing decisions
