There’s a truism that people sort of freeze at the age they become famous, because that’s when ordinary life stops for them. You are, of course, the oldest member of the group. He’s able to see, “This is the kind of thing that we can be doing this will be good for the future.” So I think that he’s very capable in that. … I think one thing that I can say about him is his ability to look into the future and read trends very early on. I think in his good fortune lies his genius. I don’t think he could have done it without us. The realization of genius was his good fortune in meeting us.
