Michael Ovitz

And as an actor, I remember once sitting with Paul Newman, who was the loveliest man and wanted so hard to be normal.

He really wanted to be one of the guys.

He took up racing, and when he was at the track, he was not Paul Newman, the movie star.

He was Paul Newman, the guy.

And I used to go with him all the time to races, and we used to go race go-karts together.

And I was with him one night in Westport, Connecticut, where he lived, and we were at a local restaurant.

He hated when people came up to him while he was eating.

He didn't care any other time.

He was really cool about signing autographs.

And I'm shooing people away.

And I said, Paul, I got to ask you a question.

You're fun to be with.

You're no different than any of my other friends.

You just happen to be a lot better looking.

And you can act, which none of us can.

How is it that – how do you take it with everyone telling you you're the greatest thing since the invention of the wheel?

You have the best eyes.

You're this.

You're that.

And he looked at me and said, Michael, you know what?
