Around people I don't know, I'm totally at a loss.

Why does a woman work ten years to change a man's habits and then complain that he's not the man she married?
Barbra Streisand

My friend Quincy Jones says we won our first Grammys together in 1963. I have no recollection. I don't even remember the room. When he showed me the picture, I remembered what I wore. But it's like awards don't mean anything.
