I’ve told my sons that oftentimes the measure of a man isn’t by what he says and does, but by what he doesn’t say or do. That especially applies to marriage.

My dad sat me down when I was 13...

He said...son...who you are...your character...your true character...is how you act when you think no one is around.

I took that in a bit, and then said...Dad...I'm a pervert.

He laughed...no...you're just 13...but keep the door locked for your mother.

My mom told me, “Keep your words sweet because you never know when you may need to eat them.”

I do not know the original speaker, but the best advice regarding speech I ever read or heard was, "Do not speak to be understood, but speak so you are not misunderstood."

The advice now is to assume that wherever you are, there is a camera recording your actions.
