Everything I Need to Know About Life...

I learned from Martin Scorsese.

  • The smallest guy in the room is the one with the most issues, don't mess with him unless you want a shot to the knee or a pen to the neck.
  • If you hear the strains of Eric Clapton...run away something bad is going to happen, probably to you.
  • In fact, also be on the look out for "All Along the Watchtower" by Jimi Hendrix. Nothing good ever came of that song either.
  • Heroes are tragically flawed and need a strong dose of Catholic redemption.
  • Life is full of compromise and you will be forced to make those compromises.
  • Everyone should have a colorful nickname.
  • Whether you are the Dalai Lama, Howard Hughes, a low level thug, or coke head, the course of true love will not run smooth. In fact, most people will break your hearts.

What have you learned from Martin Scorsese?
