00:00I can tell you, 50 years of experience, I've learned to put it down and go home.

00:05My happiness doesn't come from the roles I play or the accolades people have given me.

00:09And was that always true?

00:10No, absolutely not.

00:12I'm telling you from 70 years of experience, don't listen to them.

00:17Yeah.

00:18Listen to yourself.

00:19Yeah.

00:19Spend quiet time.

00:21Five minutes every morning.

00:22Just be quiet.

00:23Hard to do.

00:24Yeah.

00:25I'm talking to everybody in this room.

00:27Very hard to do.

00:28Five minutes of quiet.

00:30Don't reach for it.

00:31Don't think about it, which is impossible.

00:33Don't reach for it.

00:34You know what I'm talking about.

00:35Your devices.

00:37Here's a question for you all.

00:38What would you do with five minutes of silence?

00:40I pray for your generation because we did not have to deal with what you've had to deal with.

00:47And it's our fault for putting it in your hands.

00:49There were no nine million opinions of every moment of my day.

00:54No documentation.

00:54People that like you and then suddenly they hate you.

00:57And you don't understand why.

00:59It's gross.

00:59And I never had, I don't even know what you call it, an Instagram account.

01:03Never had one.

01:07You don't have a LinkedIn?

01:09No.

01:10No.

01:10I have a Cadillac.

01:12And on that note.
