BEST MOMENTS
"I don't think that a relationship should be so out of balance all of the time that some person is always giving and the other is always taking."
"I walked up and I remember I had my finger up and she said, wait, before you say anything, I have a question for you. Is what you're about to say going to help or hurt our relationship going forward? And I went. Never mind."
"When we stop looking at where we can change, we stagnate."
