In France we have a saying, 'Joie de vivre,' which actually doesn't exist in the English language. It means looking at your life as something that is to be taken with great pleasure and enjoy it.

I wish that people could understand that people need to laugh. They need to sing. They need to create their own joie de vivre.

I have a very strong will.

When I started my hotel company, Joie de Vivre, at the age of 26, I saw this venture as my ticket to freedom.

I love to see Favre playing his best football, and if his mind his right, he'll probably have a fine season.

I will die, but not retire.

When I do retire, I know for a fact that I'll never be able to replace the incredible feeling I get when I'm driving an F1 car.

A guy as great as Brett Favre has been for the length of time he's been, you would hope that he would be able to leave the game with a positive flavor in his mouth.

I'm a baseball player who likes to enjoy himself and leave everything to God. He knows what'll happen.

'Playboy' made the good life a reality for me and made it the subject matter of my paintings - not affluence and luxury as such, but joie de vivre itself.
