I think we should follow a simple rule: if we can take the worst, take the risk.

Love, real love, is not simply a state of bliss. It is an ever-changing state, the result of time and emotional development, of trust and commitment.

For men to be virgins, we think it's negative. We think that there's something wrong with them.

When you look at your life the greatest happinesses are family happinesses.

The cynic finds love with the idealist. The rebel with the conformist. The social butterfly with the bookworm. They help each other balance their lives.

I have emerged from the tunnel of grief into the light. Life is better. Not the same, but good and getting better all the time.

Nothing brings families together faster than forgiveness. That should make it Step No. 1, but most of us find forgiving hard. We associate it with weakness and losing when, actually, the reverse is true. When you forgive, you gain strength and come out a winner. You break free of control by the other person's actions.
