I definitely believe that if you stop working at relationships, they go away.

There's no text that can replace a loving touch when someone we love is hurting.

I've usually found that the greatest rewards in my life come from taking on things that are a little bit scary.

The truth is that I'm an idiot. I am. I don't do things by the rules sometimes. I say things that I probably shouldn't say. I push buttons. I deserve to be made fun of. And I feel like, as soon as you can make fun of something, it instantly removes the fear.

If you really want to make a relationship work, at some point in time, you're going to have to make some sacrifices and do some things that are a little bit uncomfortable.

I woke up many mornings not knowing what I'd done the night before. I'm amazed I'm not dead.

I like being what the girls call MOD-"my other Dad." What I've learned in the past year is that every kid is different. But as long as you love them and never forget that love, then you have the key. I think it's all about just being there and loving them because kids feel that every single day.
