I love California, I practically grew up in Phoenix.

If I’m in Rome for only 48 hours, I would consider it a sin against God to not eat cacio e pepe, the most uniquely Roman of pastas, in some crummy little joint where Romans eat. I’d much rather do that than go to the Vatican. That’s Rome to me.

I spent more time on dark ships in danger zones than any other woman in the world.

One thing I have learned in my painful career as a gambler is that bragging when you get lucky and win a few games will plunge you into gloom and unacceptable beatings very soon. It happens every time.

I’ve been to those places where it’s ‚poor, pitiful me.‘

I’ve been to Disneyland, like, 10 times. I’m getting really tired of Disneyland.

I always seem to get inspiration and renewed vitality by contact with this great novel land of yours which sticks up out of the Atlantic.

I’ve never been to New Zealand before. But one of my role models, Xena, the warrior princess, comes from there.

One travels more usefully when alone, because he reflects more.

There is always room for losers in the football business. They are the mother’s milk of gambling, and why not? Somebody has to do it, or there won’t be any winners.

To other countries, I may go as a tourist, but to India, I come as a pilgrim.

The notion that before you even set out to go to Thailand, you say, ‚I’m not interested,‘ or you’re unwilling to try things that people take so personally and are so proud of and so generous with, I don’t understand that, and I think it’s rude. You’re at Grandma’s house, you eat what Grandma serves you.

To start with, I love New York… It’s a little bit of the whole world… In New York, the whole world comes to you.

I love travelling full stop – so while I’ve had some harrowing instances, I never look at them negatively. Memories are made when you’re travelling – not when you’re chained to your desk.

The purpose of a vacation is to have the time to rest. But many of us, even when we go on vacation, don’t know how to rest. We may even come back more tired than before we left.

I don’t ever make moves under pressure.

I can resist everything except temptation.
