A sign of growing old is when interviewers start asking you,
What would you do differently if you had your life to live over again? I give some sort of answer because I don't wish to be rude, but I don't tell them the image that comes into my mind because they would think it vain and frivolous, and no one wants to be a subject for ridicule. I see myself as a tall, skinny Fellini, vigorously lifting weights. That's what I would do differently. I would lift weights.

Life is not an easy matter...You cannot live
through it without falling into frustration and
