The religious heritage sort of suggests implicitly and explicitly that you pay your dues and you get your reward later on, that's a little inconsistent with the notion of personal, happiness. I am a strong believer in a set of values that are rooted in the notion of happiness and personal fulfillment.

The notion of the single man began in the 1950's. The idea of the bachelor as a separate life was new and obscure.

One of the problems with organized religion is that it has always kept women in a second-class position. They have been viewed as the daughters of Eve.

Could I be in a better place and happier than I am today? I don't think so.

The business end of business has never interested me.

I got married before I found myself. People should find themselves before they get married.

I have been married twice, and those were not the happiest times of my life. Part of the problem, quite frankly, is that when you get married, the romance disappears and the children arrive and the love is transferred. It shouldn't be that way, but too often it is transferred to the children.
