What bothers most critics of my work is the goofiness. One reviewer said I need to make up my mind if want to be funny or serious.

#quotes #theodor-reik #women #men #love

Loyalty, Signor Molteni, not love. Penelope is loyal to Ulysses but we do not know how far she loved him; and as you know people can sometimes be absolutely loyal without loving. In certain cases, in fact, loyalty is form of vengeance, of black-mail, of recovering one's self-respect. Loyalty, not love. ~Alberto Moravia

So anything worth mulling over, I will mull over with my father, and that includes ratings. ~Joshua Malina
