I am going to leave this car as property of the nation. But meanwhile I shall use it myself.
A foreign company presented him with a red Ferrari:
Once a book falls into our possession, it is ours, the same way children lay their claim: 'That's my book.' As if it were organically part of them. That must be why we have so much trouble returning borrowed books. It's not exactly theft (of course not, we're not thieves, what are you implying?); it's simply a slippage in ownership or, better still, a transfer of substance. That which belonged to someone else becomes mine when I look at it. And if I like what I read, naturally I'll have difficulty giving it back.
I've made it clear for some time if somebody came up with the right offer, I'd consider selling the team. It wasn't a secret in Memphis or, really, around the country.
I hear a lot of rumours about me selling the club or leaving, absolutely no way.
So if I die, somebody else from the corporation will take over the business.
I would consider selling the whole company; I wouldn't like to sell just part of it, but on the other hand, I have a grandson intent on following my footsteps and another grandson in another couple of years.
Even if you have a contract you can be sold.
I felt weary of the responsibility of owning houses and was glad enough to pass mine on to others.
