I have three daughters so I can't be as tough as I want to be. When you have kids - especially daughters - they know how to work you. They're a lot smarter than we are that's for sure. But I'll be more tough on their boyfriends.

Few things are more satisfying than seeing your children have teenagers of their own.

Let parents bequeath to their children not riches but the spirit of reverence.

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

The fans know what's happened to me over the past couple of years. I lost my family. I pretty much got devastated financially and the fans know that I've had some hard times - and that's the nature of loyal fans. They want to see the people that they love and believe in get back on their feet.

Since those who believe they need a hero/celebrity outnumber the actual heroes/celebrities people feel safe and comfortably justified in numbers committing egregious crimes in the name of the greater social ego. Ironically diminishing their own true hero-celebrity nature in the process.

The gifts of nature are infinite in their variety and mind differs from mind almost as much as body from body.

Women by their nature are not exceptional chess players: they are not great fighters.

People have always wanted to be recognized and that's human nature. But people used to want to be recognized for their accomplishments and now they simply want to be visible.

I can tell you for sure: people who are at their peak right now will not sustain that. You can't. It's against the law of nature.
