“Nobody bothered with him. His failures were private and invisible”
“To pay for my father's funeral I borrowed money from people he already owed money to. One called him a nobody. No, I said, he was a failure. You can't remember a nobody's name, that's why they're called nobodies. Failures are unforgettable.”
“While the invisible hand looks after the private sector, the invisible foot kicks the public sector to pieces.”
“If I were silent and invisible, I’d fear nobody. And if I were tasteless too, not even the cannibals or modern art critics would touch me.”
“Success always hugs you in private,but failure slaps you in the public...”
“There's a world out there that nobody has bothered to promise her.”
