When I moved to New York, I was dead broke and lost my mind, and my girlfriend dumped me and was with some banker making money. I wandered by Jane Curtin’s house, and she‘s like, ‘Come in here, dear. I’ll make you lunch. Tell me, what’s going on in your life?’

Donal Logue

It would be too glib, not a hundred per cent true, to say that my father‘s career as a banker was what made me a writer.

John Lanchester

If we want to be the banker to every Indian as we want to be, then we will have to use technology.

To find a pool of lawyers from whom to choose, solicit referrals from other professionals you know or deal with – an accountant, banker or business leader. Check out Bar Association listings as well, and don’t neglect Internet research.

Laura Wasser

I like being married to someone who does what I do, and we can talk for hours about all of this stuff that I struggle with and all this stuff that he struggles with because we’re struggling with the same things. If I was married to a banker, I don’t know what we’d talk about.

Leslie Mann

George Bush is by American standards rabidly Upper Class – Eastern, Socially Attractive, WASP, 19th-century money, several generations of Andover and Yale (and, while we’re at it, his father, George H. W. ‘Poppy‘ Bush, was a former president and his grandfather was the Nazis’ U.S. banker in the 1930s).

Peter York

I was a very happy banker, but I feel happier as an author.

As an entrepreneur and a small business owner, you are intimately familiar with goals. You’ve dreamed of the ‘right‘ ones, you’ve projected ‘real‘ ones for the banker and the investor, and, secretly, you’ve imagined how life can be if you can reach the ones you’ve set.

Yoko Ono

I did not have a mobile phone in 1993. No one did, except the occasional banker or Hollywood star seeming smart, or the main character in ‘American Psycho.’ In 1993, every day was ‘let’s get lost.’ I could walk Greenwich Village for hours and not be found.

Elizabeth Wurtzel

Ana Patricia Botin

You know, I only claim to play three instruments. My dad is a banker, but a drummer at heart; and my mom used to teach piano lessons when she was younger. So I can play some piano, play a little drums, and fake the bass – but banjo, mandolin, and guitar are my thing.

Charlie Worsham

Interesting stories appeal to me, much like it appeals to the audience. Or else I might as well become a banker and make more money.
