The best thing about being a dad? Well, I think it’s just the thing that every man wants – to have a son and heir.

My mom and I have always been there for each other. We had some tough times, but she was always there for me.

To be in love is merely to be in a state of perceptual anesthesia – to mistake an ordinary young woman for a goddess.

I’m responsible for starting a whole new school of pretension.

Unless you love someone, nothing else makes any sense.

Leaders are responsible not for running public opinion polls but for the consequences of their actions.

By taking responsibility for how you choose to respond to anything or anyone, you’re aligning yourself with the beautiful dance of life.

Intense love does not measure, it just gives.

Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.

When you face a ‚performance‘ that might provoke the ‚I’m scared‘ response, choose love and approach your opportunity as a chance to dance with God. It’s more fun than ‚Dancing with the Stars!‘

Actors are one family over the entire world.

Those who have never known the deep intimacy and the intense companionship of mutual love have missed the best thing that life has to give.

I was 14, and I fell in love with Pink Floyd.

Within one’s own family, money is not the measure of things, unless the person is an absolute Scrooge. Only the most extreme kind of monster would put a price on everything.

Those who commit injustice bear the greatest burden.

The best way to know God is to love many things.

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

Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.

I think I am smart unless I am really, really in love, and then I am ridiculously stupid.

I never saw any of my dad’s stories. My mother said he had piles and piles of manuscripts.

People like music when they’re in love, but they don’t need it as much. You need music when you’re missing someone or you’re pining for someone or you’re forgetting someone or you’re trying to process what just happened.

Love is the wisdom of the fool and the folly of the wise.

If you’re a quarterback, you want everything on your shoulders. You want to be the one to make the decisions.

It started to weigh on me that I was responsible for the moves that had made me successful, but I wasn’t reaping the lion’s share of the profits, and that was problematic for me.

Our DNA is as a consumer company – for that individual customer who’s voting thumbs up or thumbs down. That’s who we think about. And we think that our job is to take responsibility for the complete user experience. And if it’s not up to par, it’s our fault, plain and simply.

With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us. We as parents are their most important role models.

We came into a broken world. And we’re the cleanup crew.

I’m very at ease, and I like it. I never thought I would be such a family-oriented guy; I didn’t think that was part of my makeup. But somebody said that as you get older you become the person you always should have been, and I feel that’s happening to me. I’m rather surprised at who I am, because I’m actually like my dad!

I love life because what more is there?

You will find men who want to be carried on the shoulders of others, who think that the world owes them a living. They don’t seem to see that we must all lift together and pull together.

If I think more about death than some other people, it is probably because I love life more than they do.

A grandmother pretends she doesn’t know who you are on Halloween.

Smiles are the language of love.

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.

My goal is just to be respected as a man when I walk down the street with my family. I don’t care what your job is, you’re not gonna talk down to me, you’re not gonna try to get a rise out of me. I’m a man first. And in establishing that, some interesting things have happened.

Lil Wayne, that’s my brother. Birdman, that’s family.

I’ve got incredible support from my wife and family and people around me. I’ve got great people around me who handle anything on the outside, business-wise, who help free me up to create in my job.

To lose one parent may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness.

Scientists are not delinquents. Our work has changed the conditions in which men live, but the use made of these changes is the problem of governments, not of scientists.

I’m happy that I have my family, and I’m happy that I had Virginia, where I grew up, to retreat to any time I felt overwhelmed. Whenever there were times when I felt like the rug was being pulled out from under me and I was floating in this crazy space, I would stop and go back to that neighborhood and realize nothing’s changed, really.

Deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance.

These technologies can make life easier, can let us touch people we might not otherwise. You may have a child with a birth defect and be able to get in touch with other parents and support groups, get medical information, the latest experimental drugs. These things can profoundly influence life. I’m not downplaying that.

Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.

When I was a kid, I never thought much about football. I thought about following in my family’s footsteps and going into professional wrestling.

I love stuff from the Holy Land. It makes me feel blessed.

I just want to make sure when I have kids, I can spend time with them. That’s the whole point.

Ignorance and bungling with love are better than wisdom and skill without.

I don’t even call them fans. I don’t like that. They’re literally just a part of my life; they’re a part of my family. I don’t think of them as on a lower level than me. I don’t think I’m anything but equal to all of them. So yeah, they’re basically all of my siblings.

As a single withered tree, if set aflame, causes a whole forest to burn, so does a rascal son destroy a whole family.

All the learnin‘ my father paid for was a bit o‘ birch at one end and an alphabet at the other.

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.

My kids always perceived the bathroom as a place where you wait it out until all the groceries are unloaded from the car.

Love is not consolation. It is light.

Most emissions aren’t caused by individuals, they’re caused by corporations and states.

I’ve always wanted a baby.

The ‚Billionaire‘ song is what my kids tease me with. They sing it to me. It’s funny.

I’m always pushing for human responsibility. Given that chimpanzees and many other animals are sentient and sapient, then we should treat them with respect.

Great bodies of people are never responsible for what they do.

The real lover is the man who can thrill you just by touching your head or smiling into your eyes – or just by staring into space.

Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive.

If you want to become fully mature in the Lord, you must learn to love truth. Otherwise, you will always leave open a door of deception for the enemy to take what is meant to be yours.
