I Believe You Make Your Own Luck. My Motto Is ‘it’s Always A Mistake Not To Go.’ So I Jump On The Airplane, Try New Things—sometimes I Get In Way Over My Head, But Then I Think, I’ll Work My Way Out Of This Somehow. A Big Part Of Making Your Own Luck Is Just Charging Out Of The Gate Every Morning…the Thing I Love About Living In New York Is That I Never Fail To Get Up In The Morning And Think, Something Adventurous Is Going To Happen Today. The Energy Is Operating At Full Throttle All The Time. And If You Want To Be Lucky You’ve Got To Go Out And Take Advantage Of It.

The Fall Of The House Of Zeus Is A Riveting American Saga Of Ambition, Cunning, Greed, Corruption, High Life And Low Life In The Land Of Faulkner And Grisham.
