Comments from other business people ... "Bad kitty, bad kitty. Get off the commercial paper market. Look what you just did. Nobody is going to want to lend that now!" - Henry Paulson, Treasury Secretary "He's the best. Absolutely fxxxing fabulous. He's the business man that I always wanted to be. Is he hiring?" - anonymous Fannie May executive "I don't know what the big deal is. He never tried to float around the world in a balloon." - Richard Branson, Virgin Airlines "Evil. So very evil. He can be my Mr. Bigglesworth any time." - Dr. Evil "There was this time when Bull and I were riding our hawgs down a lonely stretch of desert highway. We stopped by a car that had an overheated radiator and Bull sold the man some water. Back on the road, I mentioned to him that the water wouldn't get the man all the way to town. Bull laughed and said if it did, how would he sell the man more water on the way back. You learn a lot riding with the Bull. Of course, now that I'm trying to save the world ... darn it, can you get him on the phone? I have some questions." - Bill Gates, former CEO of Microsoft "Cat sit? Why would I want to cat sit?" - anonymous work colleague "Mr. Chai, he is one of the world's richest ten cats; but when he comes to my business, it is always the same - too expensive, poor quality, am I crazy. Mr. Chai, if you don't like what I have to sell, buy somewhere else." - Mrs. Wong, street fish monger "Heck, if I were one gatrillionth the business person that Richard is, I wouldn't have had to go into politics." - George W. Bush, former owner of a sports team |
