A relationship has to be cultivated. There have to be feelings of love for another first. But then you have to really like the person.

I'm not saying that people should not divorce, but at the rate at which it happens here is sick. The kids, they suffer. I don't care what anyone says.

Raising children is an enormously important part of life. I think one of the most important, or the most important, period.

She rides as a man, goes unveiled as a man, fights as a man. Let her prove herself worthy as a man, worthy of her weapons and of our friendship.

Every thought you have affects everything in your body.
