“You don’t do something because it’s a sure thing. You don’t do something for the bank. That’s the one that flops. That’s a riskier proposition than doing something completely original. It’s risky to be safe.”
James B. Stewart, DisneyWar

“Some people may be more gifted than others, but excellence in writing, as in any art form or craft, involves discipline and practice.”
James B. Stewart, Follow the Story: How to Write Successful Nonfiction

“Over the years Sumner amended his trust more than forty times to add and remove numerous beneficiaries, many of them women he dated. Dauman, who as a cotrustee of Sumner’s trust was aware of many of the gifts, acknowledged that “several” women received over $20 million each, “a lot” of women received over $10 million, and “many, many” women received over $1 million.”
James B. Stewart, Unscripted: The Epic Battle for a Media Empire and the Redstone Family Legacy
