I fell in love with Erica Kane the summer before my freshman year of high school.

I love my daughter, but she had me on couscous and fixed me pastas and made me eat oatmeal every morning and what else, turkey burgers, turkey bacon, and that kind of stuff. So she wants her dad to live a long time, and I do, too.

Bob Woodward

Without contraries is no progression. Attraction and repulsion, reason and energy, love and hate, are necessary to human existence.

William Blake

Accept your genius and say what you think.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, attributed,

Healthy discontent is the prelude to progress.
