I Thought I'd Be Living A Much

Your Harshest Critic Is Always Going To Be Yourself. Don't Ignore That Critic, But Don't Give It More Attention Than It Deserves.

Sometimes The Criticism Is Actually Useful And Constructive And Actually Informs What I Do, But Most Of The Time, It's Sort Of Mindless, Or They're Receiving Something On A Different Frequency Than I Was Sending It. They're Just Not Getting What I'm Doing, And That's Fine.

There Is No Word For Feeling Nostalgic About The Future, But That's What A Parent's Tears Often Are, A Nostalgia For Something That Has Not Yet Occurred. They Are The Pain Of Hope, The Helplessness Of Hope, And Finally, The Surrender To Hope.

The Atkins' Diet Is Where You Eat Bacon For Six Or Seven Months...and The End Result Is That You Lose Weight. Because You're Dead.

I'm Trying To Teach My Children Not To Cry. That's The Big Thing. No Crying. Because I Think We Can All Agree That Crying Is, For The Most Part, For Sissies. If My Team Loses, I'm Going To Cry. And I'm Going To Want My Kids To See Me Crying. Not Because I Think Sports Are So Important, But Because I Bet So Much Money On The Game That We'll Probably Lose The House If My Team Doesn't Win. That's Something To Cry About.
