The first question [American college kids] asked me was, 'What state is Kuwait in?' They thought Kuwait was in America.
Ask any real estate broker to name the three most important factors in buying a property, and he'll say: "Location, location, location." Now ask him to name the chief justice of the United States Supreme Court, and he'll say: "Location, location, location."
