This text features Sir Peter Ustinov's comments on his own life and others, and a variety of different subjects. The topics range from the funny to the ennobling and wise. For example, on the subject of money: Money corrupts - particularly those who don't have any; on Spartacus, Ustinov says, 'Spartacus' must be the first film about a historical subject that took longer to make than the event it was about; and on Audrey Hepburn, Statistics tell us that Audrey died young. What no statistics can show is that Audrey would have died young at any age.
