I don't like to spend time in endless meetings talking about stuff that isn't going to get anything done. I have meetings, but they're short, prompt and to the point.

Time is the most valuable thing you have - and I'm not just talking about the minutes for which you're paid.

Museums do not share their collections with other museums unless they get something in exchange. The Metropolitan will deal with the Louvre, but will they send their stuff to Memphis? No.

I'd be bored to death if I spent all my time with other businesspeople, bankers and lawyers.

Twombly, frankly, was an acquired taste. I was not in love with Twombly the first time I saw one of his paintings.

I don't see myself as a great discoverer of artists, like Charles Saatchi.
