thinking understanding mind
I know friends of mine who have never changed their mind about anything in their lives, despite evidence from all directions. And I think if you can keep an open mind and some understanding, that helps you stay young.
kids thinking two
I have two kids who were like me, we get out of bed feeling good, and the other two would sit at the breakfast table and grumble. I think it's born into us. I usually wake up feeling pretty good. Looking forward to the day.
moving thinking talking
People think I'm talking like I'm in perfect health, but I have all the infirmities for my age. I have arthritis and all those things. But if you keep moving, that won't bother you.
thinking thrown
I think it's being thrown at the wolves, we call it in our business.
thinking atlanta two
I think the saddest moment in my life just happened two months ago. My old nightclub partner passed away, Phil Erickson down in Atlanta. He - I owe him everything. He put me in the business and taught me about everything I know.
fun thinking two
I think, the 'Van Dyke Show' and 'Mary Poppins' are two of the best periods of my life. I had so much fun, I didn't want it to end.
sex thinking people
So I think we're kind of an alternate choice for people who have had it with sex and violence.
thinking good-marriage
I think that's the answer to a good marriage. Everyone has their own room.
stress believe thinking
I think most people will tell you that. They can go along and, while they're denying that they are addicted, say it's stress this, it's this, it's that. But I - it's - I think - I really believe there is a gene. Some people become addicted and others don't.
thinking missing today
If you spend your life thinking, "I wonder if today is when it ends," you're going to miss out on everything wonderful.
stars past thinking
They did ask me to do 'Dancing With The Stars;' I said I can do one show, but on that show you have to come up with a new number every week, and I told them that I think I'm a little past that stage.
thinking
I just think everyone needs their own private space.
thinking dancing singing
Once I got a job singing and dancing, a reasonable person might think, "Maybe I should learn how to do this." But no, I never did.
thinking people choices
Some people never change their mind through their whole lives, about anything, despite new information that comes in. And now that we know that homosexuality is not a choice, it's biological, I think we have to love and understand them.
