Dali remains go to the hotel and his assistant, Time magazine reporter that I am, I asked if I could take pictures of Salvador Dali. The assistant said the following words,
' Staying in room 101 and take your chances. '
We came to the door of the room go up 101. We opened the door, and then appeared on a door in front of me. After you open this door Dali kept standing and leaning on the cane. Pull out his sword to attack at any moment. Dali me for a while you've filtered into the bottom of my nose a time came a big step Dali and I we were nose to nose.
' Why do you want to take my picture' he asked Dali.
' You're Salvador Dali. You're famous enough. That's why.' I said. Dali,
'I will pay 25 thousand dollars a minute' he said. I also said that
' I can't take photos in a minute, I don't have that kind of cash '
Dali took me out of the hall and threw it out. That was the first time we met.
C. Cohen had a friend called and I told him about this incident while eating. On top of that, Cohen,
'Dali my godfather. I called to fix it, he said.'
The next day I had an appointment at 11:00.
The next day I was there around 11 o'clock. Dali kidded me again

' Of course, you know from the press conference in New York' I said and wave.
It went on for a month like this. I took a lot of pictures I Dali is a kind of exposure was not but. In the meantime, draws his sword and pictures was a constant exposures.
Once I print two copies of the. Then I asked her to Dali's signing. Dali signed with the yellow paint. Wet signature in a day and a half he was dry.
Dali still did not shoot properly and constantly, I pulled his rebellion flag.

The next day I went and thought to pull the photo. When will the full picture in three more journalists. Dali can't take pictures standing here to. ' either they or me' I said.
Dali, get in front of the three journalists of tar had asked the formula. If journalists had this question know. On top of that Dali said a long formula,
