You know you’re old when your walker has an airbag.

Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing up is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing.

A passport picture is a photo of a man that he can laugh at without realizing that it looks exactly the way his friends see him.

I want my children to have all the things I couldn’t afford. Then I want to move in with them.

I have heard endlessly that fish are so resilient that there is no way that you could exterminate a species. We are learning otherwise.

I’m not going to stop having problems.

All I can do is try to create my own brand and have people appreciate me for that.

I wanted to have a career that would last a hundred years if possible.
