Marriage is a wonderful invention: then again so is a bicycle repair kit.

In marriage there are no manners to keep up and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again. We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring.

There's only one way to have a happy marriage and as soon as I learn what it is I'll get married again.

I'd marry again if I found a man who had fifteen million dollars would sign over half to me and guarantee that he'd be dead within a year.

Men often pass from love to ambition but they seldom come back again from ambition to love.

In our minds love and lust are really separated. It's hard to find someone that can be kind and you can trust enough to leave your kids with and isn't afraid to throw her man up against the wall and lick him from head to toe.

To live in this world you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it and when the time comes to let it go to let it go.

When you start falling for somebody and you can't stop thinking about when you're going to see them again I love that. Women are beautiful. They deserve to be cherished and respected.

We are never so defensless against suffering as when we love.

A strong man doesn't have to be dominant toward a woman. He doesn't match his strength against a woman weak with love for him. He matches it against the world.

One advantage of marriage is that when you fall out of love with him or he falls out of love with you it keeps you together until you fall in again.

Be Impeccable With Your Word. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.

Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue a wonderful living side by side can grow if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole against the sky.

A kiss makes the heart young again and wipes out the years.

I have been up against tough competition all my life. I wouldn't know how to get along without it.

For if there is a sin against life it consists perhaps not so much in despairing of life as in hoping for another life and in eluding the implacable grandeur of this life.

Every day is a new opportunity. You can build on yesterday's success or put its failures behind and start over again. That's the way life is with a new game every day and that's the way baseball is.

Judgments value judgments concerning life for or against can in the last resort never be true: they possess value only as symptoms they come into consideration only as symptoms - in themselves such judgments are stupidities.

Always fall in with what you're asked to accept. Take what is given and make it over your way. My aim in life has always been to hold my own with whatever's going. Not against: with.

Ships that pass in the night and speak each other in passing only a signal shown and a distant voice in the darkness So on the ocean of life we pass and speak one another only a look and a voice then darkness again and a silence.

Beginning today treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care kindness and understanding you can muster and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.

I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.

I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
