"On Sunday at 3 p.m., Paris Hilton phoned me collect from jail. Prisoners must call collect ..'How are you different?' I asked. 'I'm not the same person I was,' she said. 'I used to act dumb. It was an act. I am 26 years old, and that act is no longer cute. It is not who I am, nor do I want to be that person for the young girls who looked up to me.

God has given me this new chance.'" (ABCNews)

"THE COUNCIL on Foreign Relations bid a fond goodbye to its chairman of 22 years - my pal Pete Peterson - and unveiled a handsome portrait of the Blackstone co-founder. He was extolled as a financial genius, a thinker, a patriot, a philanthropist, a great family man. Among those singing his praises were his daughter, Holly, and Ted Sorensen. There were many laughs on this fine evening on Park Avenue, especially when Ted roasted Pete with: 'Pete is a self-made man who worships his creator!'" (NYPost)
