Souren Milikian's opinion piece on Sothebys and Christies was interesting. For years, the two auction giants have been at each other’s throats for art-market supremacy, and I think they will continue to do so to get a bigger market share. If history repeats itself, and the unexpected always happens, how incapable must man be of learning from experience. George Bernard Shaw.

Alex Katz
A Katz painting, for all its coolness, projects feeling. So true! It's really amazing at 82, he is still young and competes with artists half his age for the audience.

What a brilliant post! What everyone learned is that when you treat people like adults, they act like adults. So true!

The Cove
The Cove is a documentary about dolphin slaughter in Japan. The filmmakers literally took their life in their hands to make it. I think it's one of the best eco-documentaries of the year. http://thecovemovie.com
Heard On The Street
I have often tried to explain to the young ones how I can be wrong most of the time and still make money in business. Luck is important in any undertaking.
