I'm not a great believer in marriages as an institution, or even in very long term relationships. I'm not sure we're built that way.

Do I think human beings are meant to be in 40-year-long monogamous, faithful, relationships? No, No, No. Whoever said they were? Only the Bible or something. No one ever said that was a good idea.

If you have a smothering parent, the effect it can apparently have on a child is to give them, in equal doses, a sense of too much self-esteem, because they are mummy's little princess or prince, and low self-esteem. It affects future relationships.

I look at life and I see some very happy relationships, but I also see the vast majority as not being that happy.

To me, being the best means proving it in different countries and championships.

We've got gays working there. If they can demonstrate long-term relationships we make same-sex benefits available just as we do with common-law marriages. Gays are productive people. Some fly airplanes some work in breweries.

People are not perfect... very often the relationships that are strongest are those where people have worked through big crises but they've had to work through them. So the challenge to us is to work through that.

I think all women have a friend who at some point dumped them or betrayed them or deeply disappointed them. And at the same time all women have a friend who they dumped or betrayed or hurt in some way. That's universal in women's friendships.

Companies like I.B.M. have offered women scholarships to study engineering for years and women engineers routinely get higher starting salaries than men.

I think the personal relationships I established mattered in terms of what I was able to get done. And I did bring women's issues to the center of our foreign policy.

I have crushes on women all the time. I don't have intimate relationships with them but I find women beautiful.

I've seen women who don't have great relationships with their dads and it all comes down to this: You have to tell girls you love them every day.

I'd much rather be a woman than a man. Women can cry they can wear cute clothes and they're the first to be rescued off sinking ships.

Relationships are made of talk - and talk is for girls and women.

Where does it stop? You get offered money for your wedding then for your kids new houses holidays... We earn enough from football and sponsorships why do you need any more?

One of the challenges in networking is everybody thinks it's making cold calls to strangers. Actually it's the people who already have strong trust relationships with you who know you're dedicated smart a team player who can help you.

I believe in singularity in relationships because you've got to have trust on both sides.

The last couple relationships I had were long distance. It's not like I can make much of an effort to travel and see anybody. The guy had to do all the work unfortunately.

'The time has come ' the walrus said 'to talk of many things: of shoes and ships - and sealing wax - of cabbages and kings.'

Friendships in childhood are usually a matter of chance whereas in adolescence they are most often a matter of choice.

Our business is about technology yes. But it's also about operations and customer relationships.

I have good relationships with Hillary Clinton Joseph Biden and especially Richard Holbrooke - he is my teacher. I learned a lot of great things from him.

I belong to a nation which over the past centuries has experienced many hardships and reverses. The world reacted with silence or with mere sympathy when Polish frontiers were crossed by invading armies and the sovereign state had to succumb to brutal force.

I always say that the real success of Wine Library wasn't due to the videos I posted but to the hours I spent talking to people online afterward making connections and building relationships.
