Jonathan Eig Quotes

In The 1920s, Everyone Wanted To Be A Celebrity. Everyone Wanted To Be Like Babe Ruth Or Charles Lindbergh ... Businessmen, In Particular, In The '20s Really Believed That To Be A Success, An Entrepreneur Needed To Have A Personality, A Sense That You Were A Success. That's Why I Think Capone Dressed The Way He Did. And That's Why He Entertained The Press - Because He Wanted To Be Perceived As A Successful American. Dale Carnegie ... Would Later Cite Capone As A Model For Creating The Public Image. Obviously, It Went Bad In Many Ways For Capone, But That's The Image He Was Going For.
