When I am dead and buried, on my tombstone I would like to have it written, "I have arrived." Because when you feel that you have arrived, you are dead.

Whatever you do just don’t smoke. In 1932 fearing a war between China and Japan Yul Brynner took them to Paris. Only a few days after his death the public service announcement was showing on all the major U.

Earlier he was a model and television director and later a photographer and the author of two books. Brynner was noted for his distinctive voice and for his shaved head which he maintained as a personal trademark long after adopting it in 1951 for his role in The King and I.
