Jonathan Goldsmith on success late in life

If I’m being honest, I wish this all hadn’t taken so long.  But, then again, maybe if success had come earlier it wouldn’t have meant as much as it does now…  The harder knocks, disappointments, and travails one has, the more opportunity one has to gain awareness of who the devil we really are.  I’m still trying.
