My dad was never married. He was kind of a rolling stone. But he was never disrespectful. At the same time, even though he had women in his life when I was a kid, there wasn’t any consistency.

I think everyone should be with who they love.

There are slavish souls who carry their appreciation for favors done them so far that they strangle themselves with the rope of gratitude.

Men always want to be a woman’s first love – women like to be a man’s last romance.

There are some things you can’t share without ending up liking each other.

What good am I? I can’t have kids. I can’t cook. I’ve been divorced three times. Who would want me?

I mean… in life… what relationship is easy?

Different taste in jokes is a great strain on the affections.

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

It’s always wonderful to get to know women, with the mystery and the joy and the depth. If you can make a woman laugh, you’re seeing the most beautiful thing on God’s Earth.

I have more friends in New York than Paris.

My wife told me if there is any rumors about me, it better be about politics and not about my social life.

Live so that when your children think of fairness, caring, and integrity, they think of you.

Romance should never begin with sentiment. It should begin with science and end with a settlement.

You can’t trust very many people.

House guests should be regarded as perishables: Leave them out too long and they go bad.

If you want to sacrifice the admiration of many men for the criticism of one, go ahead, get married.

I spend a lot of time just, you know, with my girlfriend and my dog. And I mean, we don’t have a lot of furniture in our house, so it’s really simple. And we’re trying to build products for everyone in the world, right. And you don’t want to get isolated to do that.

They do not love that do not show their love.

But now, being a parent, I go home and see my son and I forget about any mistake I ever made or the reason I’m upset. I get home and my son is smiling or he comes running to me. It has just made me grow as an individual and grow as a man.

We do not so much need the help of our friends as the confidence of their help in need.

Life’s too short to deal with other people’s insecurities.

My mother never made me do anything for my brothers, like serve them. I think that’s an important lesson, especially for the Latino culture, because the women are expected to be the ones that serve and cook and whatever. Not in our family. Everybody was equal.

As a father and now a grandfather to three wonderful grandchildren, I know how magical the first year of a child’s life is but also how much hard work it takes. Being able to spend as much time as possible with your loved ones is absolutely vital, especially early on.

This is what is hardest: to close the open hand because one loves.

Love is the flower you’ve got to let grow.

I got a lot of support from my parents. That’s the one thing I always appreciated. They didn’t tell me I was being stupid; they told me I was being funny.

A woman can’t be alone. She needs a man. A man and a woman support and strengthen each other. She just can’t do it by herself.

I always wanted to be loved.

There is no such thing as a lovers‘ oath.

I had wanted a tape recorder since I was tiny. I thought it was a magic thing. I never got one until just before I went to art school.

I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.

Do you know what it means to come home at night to a woman who’ll give you a little love, a little affection, a little tenderness? It means you’re in the wrong house, that’s what it means.

I like actors very much, but to marry one would be like marrying your brother. You look too much alike in the mirror.

See, people are watching you. Especially your children. They’re taking in every single thing you do. They are like video cameras with legs. And they are always in the record mode. They learn more from what you do than from what you say.

My mother was a powerful influence. She made me toe the line. If I didn’t have a perfect report card, she showed her disappointment.

It is most unwise for people in love to marry.

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.

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.

A lot of the time when I write about the person that I love, I feel like I’m writing about New York.

If I walked into the kitchen without washing my hands as a kid, I’d hear a loud ‚A-hem!‘ from my mother or grandmother. Now I count on other people to do the same.

The relationship to one’s fellow man is the relationship of prayer, the relationship to oneself is the relationship of striving; it is from prayer that one draws the strength for one’s striving.

A strong man doesn’t have to be dominant toward a woman. He doesn’t match his strength against a woman weak with love for him. He matches it against the world.

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

Bhai was my hero and he had immense influence on me.

Women are made to be loved, not understood.

Go up close to your friend, but do not go over to him! We should also respect the enemy in our friend.

Were it not for imagination a man would be as happy in arms of a chambermaid as of a duchess.

Men and women do think differently, and frankly, we don’t understand each other. Not at all! But that’s what makes relationships so amazing.

Men who think that a woman’s past love affairs lessen her love for them are usually stupid and weak.

Feels good to try, but playing a father, I’m getting a little older. I see now that I’m taking it more serious and I do want that lifestyle.

There was a point where I really felt I had ‚penniless divorcee lone parent‘ tattooed on my head.

My family has never been there for me. They expect things because we’re blood.

If you cry over a guy, then your friends can’t date him. It can’t even be considered.

Occasionally I’ve seen children become heavy-handed and insensitive when dealing with their aging parents, and it only caused resentment and hard feelings.

It is impossible to love and to be wise.

A family shares hardships and a connected history.

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.

Marriage is the death of hope.

I love being a dad. I just love it.

I have a family, loving aunts, and a good home. No, on the surface I seem to have everything except my one true friend. All I think about when I’m with friends is having a good time. I can’t bring myself to talk about anything but ordinary everyday things. We don’t seem to be able to get any closer, and that’s the problem.
