I’ve… been accused of being involved with every man I’m ever seen with or worked with. Maybe I have, maybe I ain’t. I never tell if I have.

What the heck is true love? I remember feeling, back when I was 12 and ‚going‘ with this girl, ‚Is this true love?‘

Mostly, my flying has been solo, but the preparation for it wasn’t. Without my husband’s help and encouragement, I could not have attempted what I have. Ours has been a contented and reasonable partnership, he with his solo jobs and I with mine. But always with work and play together, conducted under a satisfactory system of dual control.

Love possesses not nor will it be possessed, for love is sufficient unto love.

First love is only a little foolishness and a lot of curiosity.

Intimates are predestined.

Great is our admiration of the orator who speaks with fluency and discretion.

There are few things that we so unwillingly give up, even in advanced age, as the supposition that we still have the power of ingratiating ourselves with the fair sex.

I have noticed… that men usually leave married women alone and are inclined to treat all wives with respect. This is no great credit to married women.

There is nothing so difficult to marry as a large nose.

There is no private life which has not been determined by a wider public life.

He who hath many friends hath none.

One of the most terrible feelings in the world is knowing that someone else doesn’t like you. Especially when you don’t know what you’ve done to deserve it.

I never wanted to weigh more heavily on a man than a bird.

If you insist upon fighting to protect me, or ‚our‘ country, let it be understood soberly and rationally between us that you are fighting to gratify a sex instinct which I cannot share; to procure benefits where I have not shared and probably will not share.

Jealousy is just love and hate at the same time.

I don’t want to be on the Internet.

If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.

The one charm about marriage is that it makes a life of deception absolutely necessary for both parties.

Trust is not the same as faith. A friend is someone you trust. Putting faith in anyone is a mistake.

No one is a friend to his friend who does not love in return.

I take my kids to school. And if I go to work, I go to work, and they visit me on set. I come home. I have dinner with my family. I have breakfast with my family. I have a very solid, very warm home.

I can imagine it’s hard to make a relationship last. I wouldn’t know.

The real question for me is, do people have the tools that they need in order to make those decisions well? And I think that it’s actually really important that Facebook continually makes it easier and easier to make those decisions… If people feel like they don’t have control over how they’re sharing things, then we’re failing them.

Nothing is as obnoxious as other people’s luck.

The assumption is that your personal life has to be a mess to create, but how much chaos can you allow in before it takes over?

We are not angry with people we fear or respect, as long as we fear or respect them; you cannot be afraid of a person and also at the same time angry with him.

Family and friendships are two of the greatest facilitators of happiness.

I’ve had moments when I’ve thought about somebody, picked up the phone to call them and they are on the line already, and I think that maybe there’s some vibration, some connection.

My most brilliant achievement was my ability to be able to persuade my wife to marry me.

The true man wants two things: danger and play. For that reason he wants woman, as the most dangerous plaything.

If you get down and quarell everyday, you’re saying prayers to the devil, I say.

Be polite to all, but intimate with few.

If you treat people right they will treat you right… ninety percent of the time.

May we so love as never to have occasion to repent of our love!

A friend who is far away is sometimes much nearer than one who is at hand. Is not the mountain far more awe-inspiring and more clearly visible to one passing through the valley than to those who inhabit the mountain?

I wash my hands of those who imagine chattering to be knowledge, silence to be ignorance, and affection to be art.

Man does not control his own fate. The women in his life do that for him.

I have learned that only two things are necessary to keep one’s wife happy. First, let her think she’s having her own way. And second, let her have it.

No matter what love throws at you, you have to believe in it.

A quarrel is quickly settled when deserted by one party; there is no battle unless there be two.

The correlative to loving our neighbors as ourselves is hating ourselves as we hate our neighbors.

The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

I find that he is happiest of whom the world says least, good or bad.

You can draw inspiration from anything. If you’re a good storyteller, you can take a dirty look somebody gives you, or if a guy you used to have flirtations with starts dating a new girl, or somebody you’re casually talking to says something that makes you so mad – you can create an entire scenario around that.

I think everyone should be with who they love.

When I’m surfing, I’m sure not thinking about the paparazzi. I guess if they start getting on floaties and coming out there in the water, then I might be a little upset.

The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.

I believe in love at first sight. You want that connection, and then you want some problems.

To conceal anything from those to whom I am attached, is not in my nature. I can never close my lips where I have opened my heart.

The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them.

If you like a person you say ‚let’s go into business together.‘ Man is a social animal after all, but such partnerships are fraught with danger.

I am called a dog because I fawn on those who give me anything, I yelp at those who refuse, and I set my teeth in rascals.

It is in the thirties that we want friends. In the forties we know they won’t save us any more than love did.

It was weird to be married; you kind of lose your identity. You’re suddenly somebody’s wife. And you’re like, ‚Oh, I’m half of a couple now. I’ve lost me.‘

I know that I’m not the easiest person to live with. The challenge I put on myself is so great that the person I live with feels himself challenged. I bring a lot to bear, and I don’t know how not to.

Men’s vows are women’s traitors!

I mean… in life… what relationship is easy?

The beginning of an acquaintance whether with persons or things is to get a definite outline of our ignorance.

My wife and I love each other very much.

The mere thought hadn’t even begun to speculate about the merest possibility of crossing my mind.
