You get to a point where you really can't manage more artists, because representing artists takes a lot of time.
- Great

- Nov 07, 2020
When a great artist gets my attention, I pursue it. If I don't, someone else will, you know what I'm saying?

I'm not in the luxury-goods business. I sell unique objects. I wish I was in luxury goods because then I could just call the factory and say, 'I need 10,000 more of whatever.' But I can't - because then it's not art, it's something else.
- Art World

- Nov 07, 2020
The art world is never going to be popular like the NFL, but more people are buying art and I think that's cushioning, to a great extent, our art-market cycles.
- Like

- Nov 07, 2020
I don't think the art market is for everybody. Yeah, of course we have a global gallery. But we're like the one-tenth of the one-tenth of the one-tenth. OK? Not just who's buying but who's really seriously engaged with art.
- Economically

Some people buy art because they're confident that it'll be a good store value, and this is kind of a recent phenomenon.

- Memory
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have a good visual memory. I'm good with faces, but names - I get in trouble a lot; I can't seem to remember people. People think I'm rude. As a side comment, you know, I'm not being rude: I just kind of blank out.

Good jazz has been a big part of my life as far as my interest in music, and... It's kind of weird now with music, the way technology is, with downloading and iPods and electronic distribution, and its kind of - you miss something, I think.
- Jazz

- Nov 07, 2020
I've never been on a board, but I just went on the board for Jazz at Lincoln Center. I'm very happy about that.
