I think that if all kids aspire to reach a point where they could feed themselves and a few of their friends, this would be good for the world surely.

My wife and I don’t compete. We know each other’s preferences, and we work to provide those for each other. One will take over when the other is faced with something he or she dislikes. That’s what friends do.

A friend should be a master at guessing and keeping still: you must not want to see everything.

Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.

It’s when children are 15, 16 or 17 that they decide whether they want to be a doctor, an engineer, a politician or go to the Mars or moon. That is the time they start having a dream, and that’s the time you can work on them. You can help them shape their dreams.

If we listened to our intellect, we’d never have a love affair. We’d never have a friendship. We’d never go into business, because we’d be cynical. Well, that’s nonsense. You’ve got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down.

My kids are the funniest two human beings there are.

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.

When befriended, remember it; when you befriend, forget it.

Every man is said to have his peculiar ambition. Whether it be true or not, I can say, for one, that I have no other so great as that of being truly esteemed of my fellow-men, by rendering myself worthy of their esteem. How far I shall succeed in gratifying this ambition is yet to be developed.

For how many things, which for our own sake we should never do, do we perform for the sake of our friends.

Brad will tell you. He puts a movie on, I’m asleep in 10 minutes. I have no patience. But the kids love action movies with comedy, Jackie Chan and all that.

I was just a young guy who was excited to become a comedian and an actor and I just wanted to get to do what I got to do.

Upon the farm of the uncle with whom I lived, we did know of the mortgage as some dreadful damper on youthful hopes of things that could not be bought. I do have a vivid recollection that the major purpose of a farm was to produce a living right on the spot for the family.

There weren’t a lot of career opportunities in crazy-fast hardcore punk, so you didn’t have a lot of ambition, just the love and passion to play music with your friends.

My friends, there are no friends.

I make friends faster and easier than journalists.

We must think and act like a nation of a billion people and not like that of a million people. Dream, dream, dream!

I had a friend who was a clown. When he died, all his friends went to the funeral in one car.

I had a period in my life where I decided that I would never be bored again and that, if I had any free time at all, I would make plans, and I would always be doing things. It actually was great for a year or so, but then I lost all of my friends.

There is something in the unselfish and self-sacrificing love of a brute, which goes directly to the heart of him who has had frequent occasion to test the paltry friendship and gossamer fidelity of mere Man.

Talking with a friend is nothing else but thinking aloud.

As a child, I wanted to know how things worked and to control them. With a friend, I built a number of complicated models that I could control.

I never expected anyone to take care of me, but in my wildest dreams and juvenile yearnings, I wanted the house with the picket fence from June Allyson movies. I knew that was yearning like one yearns to fly.

Do good to your friends to keep them, to your enemies to win them.

I respect Chris Brown. I’d like to call myself a friend – I don’t know if I’m allowed to do that.

Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend – or a meaningful day.

I do remember how it was to be poor. I do remember that in my early years, we had to grow and raise all of our food, even our animals. And I remember in my early life, we didn’t even have electricity. So it was very, very hard times then.

The only way to have a friend is to be one.

Friendship often ends in love, but love in friendship – never.

I really hope someday in Hollywood, some producer or director will hire me only to do drama.

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 was sure I’d set the world on fire, and it was hard for a young feller like me to realize the truth – that I hadn’t set the world on fire, and I was totally unprepared to handle the consequences if ‚The Big Trail‘ had been a success and launched me as a star.

Friends are thieves of time.

My ultimate life dream project is my kids. My family.

I used to think as I looked out on the Hollywood night, ‚There must be thousands of girls sitting alone like me dreaming of being a movie star.‘ But I’m not going to worry about them. I’m dreaming the hardest.

Positional leaders ignore the fact that every person has hopes, dreams, desires, and goals of his own. And leaders must bring their vision and the aspirations of the people they lead together in a way that benefits everyone.

One day, I want to make a PG film.

When I talk to kids, I’m really listening. When I do that, we have a little bit of a bigger connection than me being Kendrick Lamar and you being a student. It’s almost like we’re friends. Because a friend listens.

Mothers all want their sons to grow up to be president, but they don’t want them to become politicians in the process.

Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose.

The kids are a big part of my schedule.

Prayer is simply talking to God like a friend and should be the easiest thing we do each day.

Even an animal, if you show genuine affection, gradually trust develops… If you always showing bad face and beating, how can you develop friendship?

I’m dying to be a great dad one day, whenever that day comes.

I have met 18 million youth, and each wants to be unique.

It is fun to be in the same decade with you.

A lot of Jews are great friends of mine.

Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.

If I became a philosopher, if I have so keenly sought this fame for which I’m still waiting, it’s all been to seduce women basically.

Your friend is your needs answered.

It’s every girl’s dream to be a cover girl!

In high school I wanted to be a rock star and was in a lot of bands.

I’ve experienced great things, I’ve experienced great tragedies. I’ve done almost everything I could possibly ever imagine doing, but I just know that there’s more.

Friendship is but another name for an alliance with the follies and the misfortunes of others. Our own share of miseries is sufficient: why enter then as volunteers into those of another?

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

To get a hold on boys you must be their friend.

A friend is nothing but a known enemy.

If you want to cut your own throat, don’t come to me for a bandage.

I love dresses, and I’ve definitely thought about designing them someday. I just want to make sure that I wait until the time is perfect and I can do it right.

It is easy to say how we love new friends, and what we think of them, but words can never trace out all the fibers that knit us to the old.
