A relationship is hard in and of itself. And having kids is really hard work, but I think it's really meaningful, as is a relationship. But they all take work.

You know, I loved math. My mom was a math teacher.

I was never the 'babe,' so I knew I'd never get those big roles. I'd always be the best friend or the quirky sidekick.

We need comedies in the world! We need to laugh, it's all so hard.

May God brighten your path.

One man to live in pleasure and wealth, whiles all other weap and smart for it, that is the part not of a king, but of a jailor.

We are only human, and the gods have fashioned us for love. That is our great glory, and our great tragedy.

What Jesus will do with you is determined on what you will do with him.

Isn't it absolutely essential to keep a fierce Left and fierce Right, both on their toes and each terrified of the other? That's how we get things done.

Please will you do my job for me.

It is a device of mine never to grudge trouble in the pursuit of what seems to me really good and never to grudge payment for it afterwards.

It's really important that my lyrics are truthful.

If everything had a label, we would live in a fully delineated but false world.

All a company report and balance sheet can tell you is the past and the present. They cannot tell future.
