I like to be a free spirit. Some don’t like that, but that’s the way I am.
I remember my friend Johnny von Neumann used to say, 'with four parameters I can fit an elephant, and with five I can make him wiggle his trunk.'
The main difference between me and other people who have amassed this kind of money is that I am primarily interested in ideas, and not in making money.
