I Choose to Live

"If people look at this book, I hope they get some hope, they have some laughs, they find some things they can relate to. I don't think of myself as abnormal, though I do and say things that some people wish they could do and say but don't. The point is: everybody can do what I've done and more, if they want to. If you take Mischa Weisz in 1991, who was sitting there in a row house, unemployed, and you take the lady next door who was also unemployed, what made one succeed while the other didn't? The will to live. Book jacket.
