As you learn who you are, you can better surround yourself with friends who make you a better person, and that sometimes only happens when you disassemble old relationships.

I am actually a very unspeaking person. I'm not really good in social situations. People expect me to be more outgoing. I don't know why. They think I have this kind of assurance.

Associate yourself with people of good quality, for it is better to be alone than in bad company.

I think the only way you learn is to surround yourself with people that are better than you.

Find people who will make you better.

Life's too short to hang out with people who aren't resourceful.

My dad raised me with some good advice: 'Always tell the truth. Always shoot from the hip. You might not have many friends, but you'll never have enemies, because people will always know where you're coming from.'

Don't make friends who are comfortable to be with. Make friends who will force you to lever yourself up.

There is always someone in the world who is better or worse off than yourself, and I've never seen that - in either direction - as a barrier to becoming friends with somebody.

With my hours, I don't hang out with anybody. I work and come home to my Upper West Side apartment.
