Ben Stein
I'm out and about meeting people all day long. And I'm very friendly I talk to just about everybody I meet.

I was a trial lawyer. At the same time, I was a teacher. I taught about the political and social content of film for American University. Then I left and became a teacher at the University of California at Santa Cruz. I taught about the political and social content of film, but I also taught a course in law for undergraduates.

I am scared of running out of money.
Ben Stein
My 'thing' is that I just lie in my immense bed and look out the window at the skyline over Virginia and the sky and the airplanes coming into Reagan. I really love doing that.

Ben Stein

Ben Stein
I have to tell you I never in my life anticipated getting this old, this fast. It seems as if I were 25 just a few days ago.
Ben Stein
Being a Daddy is priority number one. When you are old and facing oblivion in a nursing home or a hospital or on a golf course in winter, you are not going to wish you had spent more time at the office or making a sales call or watching a show. You will wish you had spent more time with your family.
Ben Stein
If there is no God, why bother to tell the truth? Why not steal?
Ben Stein
What's a good investment? Go home from work early and spend the afternoon throwing a ball around with your son.
Ben Stein
I agree that there are some bad apples on Wall Street. I spent about ten years exposing corporate and financial fraud for 'Barron's' magazine and I found a lot to write about.
Ben Stein
Faith is not believing that God can. It is knowing that God will.
Ben Stein
