If you have a setback, and you're not doing well and then you overcome it somehow, it always sticks with you. You know it could happen again.
As I went to college, I went into radio and television. Now I suppose most people think that's one step ahead of basket weaving as a major in college, but it was part of the journalism department.
But in 1941, on December 8th, after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, my mother bought a radio and we listened to the war news. We'd not had a radio up to that time. I was born in 1934, so I was seven years of age.
But my observation has been, certainly in the news business, you've got to give 110 percent.
And from a military school which taught me that to fit into society, you can't just do anything you damn well please because it will suit you. And that it's much better to be with the winners than it is with the losers.
My mother did all she could to control me, but at age 14 she sent me to a military school.
