It is impossible to think of Howard Hughes without seeing the apparently bottomless gulf between what we say we want and what we do want, between what we officially admire and secretly desire, between, in the largest sense, the people we marry and the people we love.

He is the last private man, the dream we no longer admit.

It is so easy that they don't see a click of a mouse being a crime, but it is stealing.

I think if they do a deal for Hughes, the stock will go up. The implied value is there somewhere. But Hughes is a one-time issue. There's fundamental things wrong with the core automotive business.
