Control of a company does not carry with it the ability to control the price of its stock.
From J. Paul Getty
I can afford to say what I wish.
I vehemently deny that I was born a cynic and a pessimist.
Governments, of course, can - and do - soak the rich.
The rich are not born sceptical or cynical. They are made that way by events, circumstances.
My yachts were, I suppose, outstanding status symbols.
I was brought up in an era when thrift was still considered a virtue.
I've never been one to bet on the weather.
There are at least 50 cities in the world that would have liked to obtain the Getty Collection.
Rhetoric and dialectics can't change what I have learned from observation and experience.
