Egon Neustadt, an orthodontist and real-estate entrepreneur born in Austria in 1898, began collecting Tiffany lamps with his wife, Hildegard, in 1935, when they purchased their first desk lamp in New York.
Neustadt noted that when he brought his first lamp home and placed it on his desk, "Our friends didn't like it."

Neustadt was a longtime believer in what he called the "foolish things" presidents do in their second terms -- a warning to President Bush, should he have the chance -- and this episode, so comic, so unnecessary, so inexplicable even now, was perfect fodder for a lecture on "the problem of balancing presidential advisers."
Neustadt were around he might say that President Bush has a management challenge, what with Condoleezza Rice and Donald Rumsfeld fighting even as the fighting continues in a far less mannerly setting halfway across the world in Iraq.

Neustadt had the insight, indeed the temerity, to consider the most visible role in American society and suggest that the position had little outright authority.
Presidential power, Neustadt argued, was quite limited if one looked at the authority granted to the office by the Constitution and was also consciously checked by the balance of power among the other branches of government.
