Chocolate chip cookies are no substitute for dinner ... Usually.

The most important things in life aren't things at all. They are people.

It may take a while for you to come to this realization, but eventually you will. The Beatles are the best rock and roll band of all time.

Some day you will look forward to bed time.

Time is priceless. Spend yours wisely.

When in doubt ... Smile.

Everyone who tries fails sometimes, but you can't succeed unless you try.

When it comes to screws and bolts, just remember ... Lefty loosey, righty tighty,

In the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make.

The truth is, it probably doesn't really hurt me more than it hurts you.

It's better to say, "at least we tried" than "maybe someday."

First figure out what you love to do, then figure out how to do it as often as you can.

It might not seem like it at the time, but telling the truth is always the right thing to do.

You can be anything you dream of. But if your dreams don't include going to college, they will have to wait until after graduation.

Do as I say, not as I don't say.

Take how awesome you think you are and multiply it by 100. That's about half of how awesome I think you are.

I'll never read your diaries or listen in on your phone calls... that you know about.

No means no. Until you are old enough to realize that a women can get a man to say yes to anything.

Keep your friends close and your sister closer.

The struggle is real. Real fun.
