More quotes by Aristotle Onassis
"Don't worry about your physical shortcomings. I am no Greek god. Don't get too much sleep and don't tell anybody your troubles. Appearances count: Get a sun lamp to keep you looking as though you have just come back from somewhere expensive: maintain an elegant address even if you have to live in the attic. Never nickel when short of cash. Borrow big, but always repay promptly."
"We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds."
"Find a priest who understands English and doesn't look like Rasputin."
"You are not truly wealthy unless you earn money while you are sleeping"
"Don’t sleep too much. If you sleep 3 hours less each night for a year, you will have an extra month and a half to succeed in."
