I was raised Jewish my wife was raised Catholic. Though we respect each other's heritage and while many of our friends are deeply religious we have chosen to focus on our similarities not our differences. We teach our children compassion charity honesty and the benefits of hard work.
A lot of my friends are gangsters. Not like gangsters - well yeah all sorts of levels of criminality - but not the types that are preying on innocent people. I have no interest in the type of criminality that has no respect for collateral damage.
I used to get nervous you know if my parents would come watch. And then I would get nervous if my friends came and watched. Today it's not a problem anymore actually because now I enjoy it. I see that they you know respect me immensely and I try to put on a good show and show that I can still play very good tennis.
I have many friends and family members who have served (or are currently serving) in our nation's Armed Forces. I have such a profound respect for what they do day in and day out.
I have such a profound respect for what they do day in and day out. This USO tour is especially meaningful because of the friends I have met and I am honored to be apart of it.
We all respect sincerity in our friends and acquaintances but Hollywood is willing to pay for it.
The language of America changed with the election of Bill Clinton because with all due respect to my friends on the Republican side Bill Clinton is the best communicator of the last 50 years. He felt your pain.
My friendships and relationships in the conservative world are not predicated on political correctness and enforced conformity of thought. They are based instead on mutual respect honesty and understanding - concepts many modern liberals should consider revisiting.
I remember I read this harsh review about my show and one of my friends told me that this was the exact same stuff people said about Madonna. And it's like she didn't care. Madonna just came out and was herself. I respect that a lot.
I want to say a little something that's long overdue the disrespect to women has got to be through. To all the mothers and the sisters and the wives and friends I wanna offer my love and respect till the end.
I love making new friends and I respect people for a lot of different reasons.
The fact is that more people have been slaughtered in the name of religion than for any other single reason. That THAT my friends is true perversion.

I'd fallen in love with a woman but she broke up with me and I was devastated. Six months later I went into a suicidal depression from the break-up of the relationship but I resolved to not do what my friends had done. And so I reached out for help.
I think the most important foundation about any relationship is just being honest. You've got to. My wife and I are honest to a fault with each other and we're best friends on top of it so we're very fortunate.
Though I still have no semblance of a life outside of Nine Inch Nails at the moment I realize my goals have gone from getting a record deal or selling another record to being a better person more well-rounded having friends having a relationship with somebody.
I would never put my close friends or a real relationship on a show.
If I get married it's something you really have to work at. It's hard enough to work at having a relationship with best friends and girls that are in the business.
I'd say to any woman get out of that bad relationship that's turning you into a shell of your former self. Learn from it and get out. Then wait enjoy yourself and your friends because when what you want comes along you'll spot it.
The way I become friends with somebody is a slow process. You can't just spill your guts and tell them everything about yourself and expect them to listen and understand you because you don't know them. It's the same thing with a relationship.
God gives us relatives thank God we can choose our friends.
When one has love for God one doesn't feel any physical attraction to wife children relatives and friends. One retains only compassion for them.
The relationship between husband and wife should be one of closest friends.
I'm not after fame and success and fortune and power. It's mostly that I want to have a good job and have good friends that's the good stuff in life.
