One has to devote oneself to a particular pursuit. To be successful at anything, you have to make a total commitment to it.
When I got to 40 or so... I had the sense when I looked back over my life I would actually see a mess of decisions, a few of which I had thought about, some of which I had sort of stumbled on, and many that I had no control over whatsoever.
I always love going to Paris, and now I feel like I know it really well.
