I'm busy doing my job, and being a loudmouth doesn't appeal to me as much as when I was younger and had the youthful delusion that I was smarter than everybody else.

I seem to be able to get along with anybody when I work because I really enjoy being there.

People ask, 'How do you work with the other side?' Well, I start by not saying bad things about them.

In our daily life, we encounter people who are angry, deceitful, intent only on satisfying their own needs. There is so much anger, distrust, greed, and pettiness that we are losing our capacity to work well together.

When there is tension, arguments and money problems, it's tough to do your work. Some people thrive on that. I don't.

I've had so many experiences where everyone is very polite about each other's working process, which can lead to work where everyone seems to be in different plays.

I don't like to talk much with people who always agree with me. It is amusing to coquette with an echo for a little while, but one soon tires of it.

Dealing with negative comments is part of this job, and I've had to develop a thick skin, though some days it's easier than others.

I get very annoyed when people think I'm nice or diffident or a polite English gentleman. I'm a nasty piece of work, and people should know that.

It's a lot easier to do good work when you have good words to say and work with good people.
