I love making new friends and I respect people for a lot of different reasons.

When a man says he had pleasure with a woman he does not mean conversation.

I think, under President Obama, who was a really bright guy – I didn’t agree with a lot of his politics – but we got to the point internationally where our friends didn’t trust us. They were confused. And our enemies didn’t quite respect us.

A slender acquaintance with the world must convince every man that actions, not words, are the true criterion of the attachment of friends.

I always wanted a family.

The media need superheroes in science just as in every sphere of life, but there is really a continuous range of abilities with no clear dividing line.

I was never a boy magnet at school. There was always the girl all the guys liked and wanted to date, but it was never me.

The world, as a rule, does not live on beaches and in country clubs.

There is more of good nature than of good sense at the bottom of most marriages.

I have been influenced in my thinking by both west and east.

Kisses are a better fate than wisdom.

We cannot always assure the future of our friends; we have a better chance of assuring our future if we remember who our friends are.

I certainly respect the belief of the Hobby Lobby owners. On the other hand, they have no constitutional right to foist that belief on the hundreds and hundreds of women who work for them who don’t share that belief.

If you have fear, you are bound by tradition, you follow some leader or guru. When you are bound by tradition, when you are afraid of your husband or your wife, you lose your dignity as an individual human being.

If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. And if they don’t, they never were.

I’m not saying that love always takes you to heaven. Your life can become a nightmare. But that said, it is worth taking the risk.

It is justice and respect that I want the world to dust off and put – without delay, and with tenderness – back on the head of the Palestinian child. It will be imperfect justice and respect because the injustice and disrespect have been so severe. But I believe we are right to try.

For it is mutual trust, even more than mutual interest that holds human associations together. Our friends seldom profit us but they make us feel safe. Marriage is a scheme to accomplish exactly that same end.

I don’t want enemies. I want friends, and I want them in all shapes, sizes, and colors, and loving whoever they want to.

Marriage is like a game of chess except the board is flowing water, the pieces are made of smoke and no move you make will have any effect on the outcome.

All of these young people have some kind of potential in them. And if we don’t invest in them as a nation, regardless of where they come from or what color they are, if we don’t invest in them, we lose.

I like working. That’s when I’m feeling my best. And the people around me know that. My wife knows that.

We are afraid to care too much, for fear that the other person does not care at all.

All of us, no matter how we look born into this world, feel something like the Hunchback. It doesn’t matter if you have a beautiful face or not.

It is hardly an exaggeration to say that oral teachers and sign teachers found it difficult to sit down in the same room without quarreling, and there was intolerance upon both sides. To say ‚oral method‘ to a sign teacher was like waving a red flag in the face of a bull, and to say ‚sign language‘ to an oralist aroused the deepest resentment.

I always bring out the best in men I fight, but Joe Frazier, I’ll tell the world right now, brings out the best in me. I’m gonna tell ya, that’s one helluva man, and God bless him.

If you want to know your true opinion of someone, watch the effect produced in you by the first sight of a letter from him.

I’ve never been a boyfriend kind of girl.

Family quarrels are bitter things. They don’t go according to any rules. They’re not like aches or wounds, they’re more like splits in the skin that won’t heal because there’s not enough material.

It is not titles that honor men, but men that honor titles.

I enjoyed climbing with other people, good friends, but I did quite a lot of solo climbing, too.

To me, if you’re trying to impress a girl, get a date, they’re gonna like that more because you’re a confident guy. That’s what it comes down to.

Money and women are the most sought after and the least known about of any two things we have.

All religions must be tolerated… for every man must get to heaven in his own way.

Not cohabitation but consensus constitutes marriage.

I remember when I was in high school I didn’t have a new dress for each special occasion. The girls would bring the fact to my attention, not always too delicately. The boys, however, never bothered with the subject. They were my friends, not because of the size of my wardrobe but because they liked me.

I think, in politics, half the people are gonna like you, and half the people are not gonna like you, no matter what you do or what you say… It’s like there are no right answers. If there were, everyone would choose the right answers. They’re all opinions.

Few are drawn to the person whom others avoid and neglect; people gather around those who have already attracted interest.

I maintain that, if everyone knew what others said about him, there would not be four friends in the world.

Unless India stands up to the world, no one will respect us. In this world, fear has no place. Only strength respects strength.

As long as you know men are like children, you know everything!

I don’t think there’s an option for me to fall in love slowly or at medium speed. I either do, or I don’t.

He that overvalues himself will undervalue others, and he that undervalues others will oppress them.

I hope that tomorrow we can all, wherever we are, join in expressing our grief at Diana’s loss, and gratitude for her all-too-short life. It is a chance to show to the whole world the British nation united in grief and respect.

The feeling of friendship is like that of being comfortably filled with roast beef; love, like being enlivened with champagne.

When the people we love stop paying attention, trust begins to slip away and hurt starts seeping in.

Friends accept you the way you are.

A man’s only as old as the woman he feels.

The people respect and believe in men who fulfill their duty.

I don’t keep people around me that aren’t family. You don’t get to stay. Unless you’re eating at the table with us, you’re not part. We eat together, we cry together, we live together, we die together. Everything that we do is for each other, and we care for another.

I didn’t know any gay people in my childhood.

My experiences in life are getting bigger and better. The more stuff I do, the more stuff I talk about – having kids, traveling, going through relationship problems, dealing with things in my own family. All that stuff builds character.

Make yourself necessary to somebody.

You can’t have it all, all at once. Who – man or woman – has it all, all at once? Over my lifespan, I think I have had it all. But in different periods of time, things were rough. And if you have a caring life partner, you help the other person when that person needs it.

Nobody has ever convinced me that race is real.

I’ve learned that usually, the less I know about other people, the better off I am.

There are a lot of good women in New York.

An injured friend is the bitterest of foes.

Life began with waking up and loving my mother’s face.

Meeting Franklin Roosevelt was like opening your first bottle of champagne; knowing him was like drinking it.

Men get to be a mixture of the charming mannerisms of the women they have known.
