| Beyonce Knowles | When you really don't like a guy, they're all over you, and as soon as you act like you like them, they're no longer interested. | 101 |
| Jack Nicholson | There's only two people in your life you should lie to... the police and your girlfriend.  | 101 |
| Kelly Osbourne | I was dating this guy and we would spend all day text messaging each other. And he thought that he could tell that he liked me more because he actually spelt the word 'YOU' and I just put the letter 'U'. | 101 |
| Nicole Scherzinger | I love a man with a great sense of humor and who is intelligent - a man who has a great smile. He has to make me laugh. I like a man who is very ambitious and driven and who has a good heart and makes me feel safe. I like a man who is very strong and independent and confident - that is very sexy - but at the same time, he's very kind to people. | 101 |
| Zoe Lister-Jones | Women always try to see the one good part of The Weird Guy because the dating landscape is so bleak. Women will say, 'He's very odd, but he likes to cook. He's creepy, but he makes good pancakes!' | 101 |
| Foxy Brown | To find a prince, you gotta kiss some toads. | 101 |
| Greg Behrendt | I think probably - I think, you know, when you're first dating somebody, if they're just not that physical with you, if they don't want to make concrete plans with you, you know, if they're sort of ambiguous about where everything is going, I think that's a pretty good sign that they're not into you. | 101 |
| Kurt Braunohler | Who would want to get back together with Taylor Swift after having dated her? I'm sure dating her is like talking to a white sheet of paper with a little bit of vanilla ice cream on it that doesn't say anything. | 101 |
| Stephen Merchant | I have experienced bad dating and ineptitude with women all across the globe, from Vietnam to Paris. When I was 21, women were an enigma; they were this code that had to be cracked. They were 'The Other.' I have often thought writing this stuff into stand-up and shows would be an exorcism, but it hasn't been; it makes no difference. | 101 |
| Ami Bera | Our nation is built upon a history of immigration, dating back to our first pioneers, the Pilgrims. For more than three centuries, we have welcomed generations of immigrants to our melting pot of hyphenated America: British-Americans; Italian-Americans; Irish-Americans; Jewish-Americans; Mexican-Americans; Chinese-Americans; Indian-Americans. | 101 |
| Dax Shepard | It's ironic, really. Guys should be excited that I got Kristen Bell. If Brad Pitt gets Kristen Bell, it's like, 'Well, of course he did.' With me, it should be, 'Oh good, a normal-looking guy got her. Maybe I'll get me a Kristen Bell.' But guys hate my guts for always dating women I have no right to be with. | 101 |
| Roy Blount, Jr. | I heard on public radio recently, there's a thing called Weed Dating. Singles get together in a garden and weed and then they take turns, they keep matching up with other people. Two people will weed down one row and switch over with two other people. It's in Vermont. I don't think I'd be very good at Weed Dating. | 101 |
| William Camden | The sea hath fish for every man. | 101 |
| Ashley Rickards | Frankly, the reason I joined MENSA is because I was dating a guy at the time who spoke five languages and could solve a Rubik's Cube literally with his eyes closed because it's just an algorithm. | 101 |
| Brooke Burns | I love being a single mom. But it's definitely different when you're dating. | 101 |
| James Levine | It was just that we had this phenomenal honeymoon relationship that just kept on going. | 101 |
| Tim Meadows | In my experience with women that I've dated and my wife now, is you have to know what they care about. And even if you aren't a huge fan of it, you still have to have interest in it and it has to be genuine because women do it for men all the time. | 101 |
| Bridget Hall | It's just me and my 6-month-old puppy. I am not dating anyone. | 101 |
| Danny Rimer | Is Amazon truly the best online buying experience? Absolutely not. Is eBay the best platform for auction? Probably not. Are dating sites like match.com really a reflection of the way people date? Probably not. | 101 |
| Shaun Cassidy | I'm not cynical about marriage or romance. I enjoyed being married. And although being single was fun for a while, there was always the risk of dating someone who'd owned a lunch box with my picture on it. | 101 |
| Chandra West | When I was five years old, I told my parents that I wanted to take ballet. So, ballet was the focus of my life... until puberty. Then I discovered boys and started dating a guy with a mohawk who'd come to my ballet class and freak everybody out. Shortly after that is when I quit. | 101 |
| Charlotte Arnold | I hated the idea of a high school sweetheart. Growing up, oh my God, it just made me sick. I wanted to have a range of cool boyfriends. I wanted to travel around and date these interesting men. Then it just happened. You fall in love. | 101 |
| Alexander Koch | Facebook and pictures on the Internet have created such a different way of dating. It's not necessarily good because an obsessive quality can develop in people. | 101 |
| Denise Vasi | Dating is fun. It's light: There's courting; there's the interesting, exciting text messaging and flirting. There's no weight. When you start getting into relationships, you really start having to consider each other in your lives, and I think that's really important. | 101 |
| Mary Frann | I date older men, and I date younger men. I have no rules about that. | 101 |
| Joshua Harris | I'm not saying dating is sinful, and I'm not saying a guy and a girl should never spend time alone together. I'm saying let's wait until we can be purposeful, so there's a reason behind our relationship, and we're not just stirring up passion for the sake of a good time. | 101 |
| Natalie Portman | Smart women love smart men more than smart men love smart women. | 102 |
| Pink | I change my mind so much I need two boyfriends and a girlfriend. | 102 |
| Richard Gere | I don't know any of us who are in relationships that are totally honest - it doesn't exist. | 102 |
| Ben Kingsley | If your best friend has stolen your girlfriend, it does become life and death. | 102 |
| Fred Seibert | I really like dating stories, like in Betty and Veronica comics; I like David Lynch and H.P. Lovecraft for the dark gut-wrenching stuff, and I'm inspired by Miyazaki's films for the subtle heart-warming moments, as well as the moments that blew up my imagination. | 102 |
| Jeremy Lin | Stuff about me dating Kim Kardashian - I have no idea where that came from and all these other rumors. I don't think I'm that type. | 102 |
| Josh Dun | As I've told Tyler, there's not a really easy place between being single and being married for us now. We're just so busy that the logistics of our career make dating impossible. I think I'll find a girl at some point that makes all of the extra work and effort that needs to be put into it worth it. But for right now, I just date my drums. | 102 |
| Kiesza | I was a weird teenager. My mother was actually worried because I didn't have any interest in dating in my teenage years. I had all this desire to pursue my passions like ballet, then sailing, then music, so I didn't have any emptiness to fill. | 102 |
| Bridget Fonda | I don't talk about who I'm dating because when you break up, you wind up reliving it in the media. | 102 |
| Luke Wilson | It's always been my personal feeling that unless you are married, there is something that is not very dignified about talking about who you are dating. | 102 |
| Rupert Grint | It's not that I find it hard to meet girls - they do come up and chat me up from time to time. Sometimes I'm interested, I tend not to go for the prettier ones. I prefer the quirkier types. | 102 |
| Wendy Liebman | I've been on so many blind dates, I should get a free dog. | 102 |
| George Andrew Olah | I grew up between the two world wars and received a rather solid general education, the kind middle class children enjoyed in a country whose educational system had its roots dating back to the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. | 102 |
| Matt Cohen | I don't do a lot of dating. I guess it's kind of like everyone is always trying to set me up with somebody, so we go out and hang out at a club or somewhere. I think dates are weird. | 102 |
| Susan Isaacs | I must have been yearning for some Jewish content beyond my genetic makeup because soon after my 21st birthday, I noticed I was no longer dating WASPs. | 102 |
| Cuba Gooding, Jr. | My wife and I have been together since 1986. I graduated in '86 and she graduated in '88. We began dating when she was 17. Actually she turned 18 when we started kissing and stuff. | 102 |
| Dana Delany | I've been dating younger men since my 20s, When I was 29, I dated someone 21... younger men are just more fun. I like their energy. I've always been kind of young for my age. | 102 |
| Dorothy Stratten | I don't think a powerful man would be interesting unless he'd be nice, attractive, with or without the power. Men are interested in powerful men. Women are interested in terrific men! | 102 |
| Matt Czuchry | I'm enjoying dating. I'm single, though, I'm not in a relationship. | 102 |
| Jesse Metcalfe | I don't have a type. But one thing I can say from my dating experience is that a physical attraction will only take you so far. So you definitely have to have a strong intellectual connection as well. | 102 |
| Anne Hathaway | Kindness is really important to me in finding my own prince - so are patience and a sense of humor. Without those qualities he's no Prince Charming! | 103 |
| Barton Gellman | Smallpox, which spreads by respiration and kills roughly one in three of those infected, took hundreds of millions of lives during a recorded history dating to Pharaonic Egypt. The last case was in 1978, and the disease was declared eradicated on May 8, 1980. | 103 |
| Gloria Allred | I'm not interested in dating. I like being with my own best friend, me. Certain women, particularly older women, cannot believe I like going to a social event by myself. But I do. | 103 |
| Leonardo DiCaprio | I prefer ordinary girls - you know, college students, waitresses, that sort of thing. Most of the girls I go out with are just good friends. Just because I go out to the cinema with a girl, it doesn't mean we are dating. | 103 |
| Tim Allen | Women are like cars: we all want a Ferrari, sometimes want a pickup truck, and end up with a station wagon. | 103 |
| Georgina Bloomberg | I'm not traditional at all. It's not that I'm against marriage; it just never mattered that much to me. If I was dating someone who getting married was very important to them, then absolutely. I'd have no problem. I love the idea of finding someone to be a great father figure to Jasper and to share my life with. | 103 |
| Kristin Davis | I've been dating since I was fifteen. I'm exhausted. Where is he? | 103 |
| Mickey Rooney | I didn't want to be short. I've tried to pretend that being a short guy didn't matter. I tried to make up for being short by affecting a strut, by adopting the voice of a much bigger man, by spending more money than I made, by tipping double or triple at bars and restaurants, by dating tall, beautiful women. | 103 |
| Natascha McElhone | Mum left school at 15, and after a few years of modelling and dating jazz musicians, was married by 21 to my father, Mike Taylor, a journalist on the 'Daily Mirror.' They had my brother and me pretty quickly and had split up by the time I was two. I don't really have any memories of them as a couple. | 103 |
| Whitney Cummings | I'm the one who's dating the craft-service guy instead of the producer. Plus, if a producer is going to date a hot young thing, I'm probably not the first person on their list - the weird, quirky, funny girl. | 103 |
| Ella Eyre | I love sushi. Once on Valentine's Day, someone I was dating rocked up at the airport to pick me up with a bag of salmon because I love it so much. | 103 |
| Luke Pasqualino | When it comes to dating, I'm straightforward and traditional with a twist. | 103 |
| Mark Ronson | My grandmother always used to wear this English perfume called Tuberose and then she died and then I dated this girl who wore the same thing. Every time I hung out with her, I could only think of my recently deceased grandmother. So sometimes a signature scent can be good and sometimes it can be bad. | 103 |
| Paget Brewster | Oh, my dating skills are the worst. No, I pick the wrong men; it's amazing. I am awful, the worst dater. | 103 |
| Emily Meade | The funniest thing is I never understood why actors were so shady about who they're dating. Then I realized the things you say get printed and the people you're involved with read them. That's what's tricky. Nothing goes unnoticed. I don't want to get myself in trouble! | 103 |
| Ben Savage | I think a nice romantic dinner should be saved for when you and the girl you're dating or seeing have something special and it's a more special occasion. | 103 |
| Betty Dodson | We are constantly protecting the male ego, and it's a disservice to men. If a man has any sensitivity or intelligence, he wants to get the straight scoop from his girlfriend. | 103 |
| Torrie Wilson | I was dating a guy that was a huge wrestling fan and I'm embarrassed to say it now but I used to make fun of him for watching it. | 103 |
| Clark Gable | It is an extra dividend when you like the girl you've fallen in love with. | 103 |
| Crystal Waters | Love was not in it for me at first. I dated guys because of the way they looked. And then I began to learn that it's what's inside that counts. Love to me now is understanding. It's giving. | 103 |
| John Bytheway | While I am aware of no counsel on whether kissing should be reserved only for post-mission dating or courtship, I am aware of plenty of counsel concerning honesty in our actions and treating others with respect and kindness. Casual attitudes about expressions of affection such as kissing can cause much grief and heartache. | 103 |
| Alexander Koch | I'm a bit of a romantic, to a fault. It's led me to some great things and also some sad things. It's made me a better person, to keep a good spirit about dating. | 103 |
| Jules Asner | I'm a bad dater - I'm just not good at it. It's so weird dating in this town. It's like high school. I get a lot of people who have their publicist call my agent to ask, 'Is she dating anyone?' | 103 |
| Ed Sheeran | Whenever you have an ex, and they're like, 'I hope we can still be friends!' and you weren't friends before you started dating, then what do you go back to, really? | 104 |
| Heather Locklear | You can't keep changing men, so you settle for changing your lipstick. | 104 |
| Megan Fox | I like the bad-boy types. Generally the guy I'm attracted to is the guy in the club with all the tattoos and nail polish. He's usually the lead singer in a punk band and plays guitar. But my serious boyfriends are relatively clean-cut, nice guys. So it's strange. | 104 |
| Neil LaBute | Relationships in general make people a bit nervous. It's about trust. Do I trust you enough to go there? | 104 |
| Vinessa Shaw | I'm not very good at dating. I'm very decisive. If I like someone, then they're my boyfriend. It's pretty straightforward. | 104 |
| Wale | I dated a lot, but I never really had anyone who was worthy of an anniversary. And most girlfriends never made it to a year, anyway. | 104 |
| Corbin Bernsen | 'Christian Mingle' is about a young, modern, single woman. She's trying to achieve it all - a successful career, amazing friends, and finding Mr. Right. She stumbles into the world of online dating looking for an instant 'soul mate solution,' but ultimately ends up taking a personal journey transforming her life. | 104 |
| Sheridan Smith | I've got mates who have got married through meeting on Internet dating sites, so it really can work out - even if sometimes it does go disastrously wrong. | 104 |
| Sri Mulyani Indrawati | In Indonesia, where I am from, the Dutch-imposed Civil Code dating back to the colonial 1870s prevailed until the 1974 Law on Marriage granted married women greater rights, including the ability to open individual bank accounts. | 104 |
| Alicia Silverstone | My boyfriend calls me 'princess', but I think of myself more along the lines of 'monkey' and 'retard'. | 104 |
| Dylan Penn | I can't imagine dating someone famous. I try to stay away from that as much as I can. | 104 |
| Krysten Ritter | I'm currently single, so I want to have fun! As for what guys need to do to date out of their league, it's all about the swagger. If you have confidence, you can get pretty much any girl. | 104 |
| Rachel Bloom | While actors are great and awesome, writers literally create new worlds from scratch. What is sexier than that? Personally, I don't know why every last person out there isn't dating a writer. | 104 |
| James Lafferty | What I remember most about junior homecoming was my date getting sick afterwards. That kinda sucked. Then, senior year, someone got gum in her hair when we were dancing. She had to get one of the chaperones to take her to the office and cut up her hair. I felt really bad for her, but it worked out fine. | 104 |
| Kevin Crossley-Holland | When I was a boy, I took over the shed at the bottom of the garden and displayed fossils and potsherds and coins in it and proudly called it my 'museum'. I charged people to come in, and my most prized possession was a Saracen shield dating from the Crusades. | 104 |
| David Gallagher | I can't wait for my little sisters to start dating, because it will really be fun to pick on their boyfriends. | 104 |
| Jason Schwartzman | I don't know the first real thing about the dating game. I don't know how to talk to a specific person and connect. I just think you have to go to person by person and do the best you can with people in general. | 104 |
| Rachelle Lefevre | Dating and getting attention from boys was something that came later to me. | 104 |
| Avan Jogia | If I've been dating someone for, say, five months, and she cheats on me, I don't think it would be worth it. I'm not committed enough to the situation to give her a second chance. | 104 |
| Christine Elise | People with film careers get a whole onslaught of people they spend 12 hours a day with every three months. It's like speed dating. You've got a fast-track to social intimacy with a whole bunch of people. | 104 |
| Rob Riggle | I think audiences can relate to the guys I'm playing, those large-and-in-charge idiots. Or maybe I just make them feel better about who they are, or who they're dating. | 104 |
| Matt Prokop | When you're young and dating someone, just play it safe and don't try so hard. | 104 |
| Judith Krantz | I got that experience through dating dozens of men for six years after college, getting an entry level magazine job at 21, working in the fiction department at Good Housekeeping and then working as a fashion editor there as well as writing many articles for the magazine. | 104 |
| Mae West | Save a boyfriend for a rainy day - and another, in case it doesn't rain. | 105 |
| Billy Beane | I've always been intellectually restless, but it is the building part of it that most interests me. It is the constructing of the team that is my favorite part. Anyone who is familiar with the history of the A's franchise, even dating back to Philadelphia, knows that every five or 10 years, you have to tear it apart and rebuild it. | 105 |
| Candace Bushnell | If I'm with a man, is that going to prevent me from achieving my goal? What sacrifices will I have to make in terms of being myself, if I'm with a man? Something that young women find out really quickly is that when you start dating, all of a sudden you're supposed to have a role. You're not allowed to just be yourself. | 105 |
| Douglas Coupland | Workshops and seminars are basically financial speed dating for clueless people. | 105 |
| Loretta Young | In my dreams, I could be a Princess, and that's what I was. Like most little girls, I believed nothing less than a Prince could make my dreams come true. | 105 |
| Patrick Kane | There are some guys you definitely would not want dating your sister - especially hockey players. | 105 |
| Paul Feig | I always hated high-school shows and high-school movies, because they were always about the cool kids. It was always about dating and sex, and all the popular kids, and the good-looking kids. And the nerds were super-nerdy cartoons, with tape on their glasses. I never saw 'my people' portrayed accurately. | 105 |
| Zosia Mamet | I think feminism's a bit misinterpreted. It was about casting off all gender roles. There's nothing wrong with a man holding a door open for a girl. But we sort of threw away all the rules, so everybody's confused. And dating becomes a sloppy, uncomfortable, unpleasant thing. | 105 |
| Dan Jenkins | Being a club pro and all, a guy trying to keep up with golf's modern technology, I hadn't found much time for Internet dating, but then one day I knew I'd met the girl of my dreams when she replied to a comment I'd made on You-and-Me.com. She said, 'I love it when you talk equipment to me.' | 105 |
| Garry Shandling | I'm dating a woman now who, evidently, is unaware of it. | 105 |
| Joyce Brothers | No matter how love-sick a woman is, she shouldn't take the first pill that comes along. | 105 |
| Anna Held | Some women flirt more with what they say, and some with what they do. | 105 |
| Emily VanCamp | I've given up looking for a boyfriend. That's not to say I won't be interested if the right guy comes along. But I'm not in a hurry. | 105 |
| Stacy Keibler | A simple compliment goes a really long way - for a guy to just come over and say, 'You have great hair' or 'I really like your dress,' and then just smile and walk away. That's a great move, because he's sort of putting himself out there by doing that, but it won't lead to any embarrassment if the girl isn't interested. | 105 |
| Suresh Raina | As and when I get into a relationship, I'll flaunt her to the world. I'm looking for a soul mate, and in any case, I'm not very much for casual dating. I'm such a simple guy away from this dating-shating business. | 105 |
| Wendy Liebman | Is there a doctor in the house? My parents want me to marry you. | 105 |
| Jen Lancaster | I just thank God my husband and I found each other before the advent of social media. I can't imagine dating someone and seeing what they're doing on their Facebook page. And people breaking up with each other over texts now? We had to break up with each other face to face back then. | 105 |
| Beverly Lewis | If you're a good Amish girl, you're courting, you have three or four different beaus, and you go out and stay out all night. That's just their tradition. They date under the covering of night. No one knows who they're dating or seeing until two weeks before they're going to be married. It's how they've done it for 300 years. | 105 |
| Caroline Winberg | We don't do 'dating' in Sweden. | 105 |
| Essence Atkins | What online dating did was offer me the opportunity to go out with a bunch of different people from different industries; I really didn't want to limit myself with people who are in the entertainment industry. | 105 |
| Julie Bowen | I've had a little bad, bad media luck the new year. Well, apparently I'm dating Bill Clinton, which makes me nervous. I didn't know, though. | 105 |
| Scott Westerfeld | The difference between being a part-time writer and a full-time writer is like the difference between dating someone and living with them. Some of the romance is gone, but you learn things you'd never know just by dating. | 105 |
| Joshua Harris | Dating now is a lot like going shopping when you don't have any money. Even if you find the right thing, you can't do anything about it. | 105 |
| Francesca Annis | However successful you are, there is no substitute for a close relationship. We all need them. | 106 |
| Orlando Bloom | I'm quite sensitive to women. I saw how my sister got treated by boyfriends. I read this thing that said when you are in a relationship with a woman, imagine how you would feel if you were her father. That's been my approach, for the most part. | 106 |
| Tim Berners-Lee | The Google algorithm was a significant development. I've had thank-you emails from people whose lives have been saved by information on a medical website or who have found the love of their life on a dating website. | 106 |
| Veronica Roth | In my own relationships, I know that I should break up with someone who doesn't encourage me to be strong and make my own choices and do what's best in my life, so if you're dating someone who doesn't want you to be the best person you can be, you shouldn't be dating them. | 106 |
| Anderson Cooper | I don't have much experience, but the few times when I would go on a date with a girl - like when I was 12 - there was a lot of sharing, and a lot of talking, and a lot of asking how I am. They thought we were dating, and I was sort of hoping to meet their brothers. | 106 |
| Andy Samberg | It's weird to have people so interested in your personal life. It's a part of the business that grosses me out. I'm always bummed out for people who just happen to be dating a celebrity, and they're also famous, and they can't live their life. | 106 |
| Jenny McCarthy | My philosophy of dating is to just fart right away. | 106 |
| Liam Payne | I had a few dating disasters along the way with girls cheating on me. One girl was the inspiration for me singing 'Cry Me A River' on 'The X Factor.' That was my payback to her because she was unfaithful. | 106 |
| Nicholas Haslam | It's the fashion, I tell you: big, tall women going out with tiny, tiny men. | 106 |
| Rashida Jones | I'm friends with a lot of my exes, but it took time. We didn't just get into it. I don't think you can be friends until you're cool with them dating someone else. That's when you know. | 106 |
| Kato Kaelin | At the time that I knew them, they were not living together. They began dating again after their divorce, so I didn't really see fighting. | 106 |
| LisaRaye McCoy-Misick | I want to start dating the man that I'm gonna marry. I want to start having some fun with someone that I know I'm gonna be with. I don't play any games. I'm too old for that. I've been there; I've been around the block. | 106 |
| Minnie Driver | Last year my boyfriend gave me a painting - a very personal one. I really prefer personal gifts or ones made by someone for me. Except diamonds. That's the exception to the rule. | 106 |
| Rachel Dratch | I have no wisdom to share on dating. | 106 |
| Daphne Zuniga | I started dating older men, and I would fall in love with them. I thought they could teach me about life. | 106 |
| Adrianne Palicki | I want a guy I can go hiking with, who wants to do outdoorsy stuff. It's so much fun to be out in nature and who better to do that with than the person you're dating? | 106 |
| Michael Patrick King | If I talk to a woman for more than five minutes I can tell you exactly whether she's an Aidan girl or a Mr. Big girl. Aidan girls are more interested in nurturing relationships and building a nest while Mr. Big girls are more about show and having fun. | 106 |
| Manny Montana | People usually spend the first two months playing themselves up, not really being themselves. You waste those two months - and then they tell you, 'You're not who I was dating the first month!' | 106 |
| Joey Adams | Never let a fool kiss you, or a kiss fool you. | 106 |
| Albert Ellis | People could rationally decide that prolonged relationships take up too much time and effort and that they'd much rather do other kinds of things. But most people are afraid of rejection. | 107 |
| Grace Helbig | When I started 'DailyGrace,' I was dating a 26-year-old guy I thought was the funniest person in the world. My creation process every day was imagining him watching my videos and wondering, 'Will he laugh at this?' But somehow that's turned into an audience that's mostly 15-year-old girls. | 107 |
| Margot Robbie | I think, at the end of the day, age is just a number. It's like, in real life, I've got friends who are dating someone their age or dating someone who's twice their age, and they're equally in love. | 107 |
| William Congreve | Courtship is to marriage, as a very witty prologue to a very dull play. | 107 |
| Garry Shandling | Which is, I'm an optimist that two people can be together to work out their conflicts. And that commitment, I think, might be what love is, because they both grow from their relationship. | 107 |
| Nev Schulman | I have very little experience with dating websites. My feeling toward dating websites is what most people's is: If it works, great. If you're serious and legitimate about it and know what you're looking for, then from what I hear, it's definitely effective. | 107 |
| Patricia Velasquez | I think if I could have a boyfriend like my brothers I'd be really happy. But without the brother thing. | 107 |
| Angie Stone | Coming through the fire and through the storm of life with a strong man, my fiance Ashanti, whom I've been dating for eight months and two wonderful children beside me, I'm just so happy that I have been able to maintain my integrity and get to where I am today with the right energy around me. | 107 |
| Honore de Balzac | No man should marry until he has studied anatomy and dissected at least one woman. | 108 |
| Nigel Hamilton | That's the miracle of Amazon! It's like Internet dating. In the early days, you could get slimed as an author on Amazon by someone bearing a grudge, or jealous, or whatever. And because there were so few reviews posted, this stank. | 108 |
| Vanessa Hudgens | Do not just look at your boyfriend as just a boyfriend. Look at him as a friend, too. | 108 |
| Jim Bishop | Watching your daughter being collected by her date feels like handing over a million dollar Stradivarius to a gorilla. | 108 |
| Patti Stanger | The rich are different. Their wants are very high maintenance. They'll pick eye color and hair color, all the way down to what she does for a living, what school she went to. Their list can be extremely long. But at the end of the day, dating is dating, because they're human beings. | 108 |
| Andre Dubus III | Years later I would hear my father say the divorce had left him dating his children. That still meant picking us up every Sunday for a matinee and, if he had the money, an early dinner somewhere. | 108 |
| Dax Shepard | Here's the funny thing about the response I've been aware of to my dating famous people: It's been very negative. I'm either not good-looking enough, not a good enough actor or not successful enough for these people. | 108 |
| Denise Van Outen | I'd got to that age when I was out on a date with a guy and I would be thinking: Don't mention your age, don't mention that you want a child - because they would just run out the door. | 108 |
| Lucy Liu | Everything I buy is vintage and smells funny. Maybe that's why I don't have a boyfriend. | 108 |
| Ray Comfort | Evolution is unobservable. It's based on blind faith in a few dry bones and on unreliable dating systems in which the gullible trust. Kids should be allowed to make up their own minds about this issue, and not be censored to 'one side is all we will let you hear.' | 108 |
| Rebecca Romijn | Are you kidding? I'm a terrible cook, but John is a really great one. Literally, I never cook. The whole time we were dating, I prepared two officially romantic meals. Both of them were such disasters that he begs me never to go into the kitchen again. | 108 |
| Rosario Dawson | It was funny actually because that was still during the time we were dating. He would get all these calls because supposedly before we broke up, we had already broken up in the trades, in the rags or whatever. | 108 |
| Joelle Carter | My husband's a little younger than me. When I first started dating him, I just fell mad for him. I made a deal with myself: I was like, 'I'm not gonna get weird about what the future might be. I'm just going to be in every moment I can and enjoy us to the fullest.' I told him that, too. | 108 |
| Taylor Swift | If you cry over a guy, then your friends can't date him. It can't even be considered. | 109 |
| Frans de Waal | The term 'alpha female' originated in my field of animal behavior, but has acquired new meaning. It refers to women who are in charge, for example, by flirting and dating on their own terms. It is also used maliciously for a loud-mouthed, controlling woman who has no patience with deviating opinions. | 109 |
| Brooke Burke | Dating is really hard because everyone puts on a front. It's really difficult to see who is who, so it is important to be yourself. | 109 |
| Carmen Electra | If you don't have a valentine, hang out with your girlfriends, don't go looking for someone. When it's right, they'll come to you. | 109 |
| Christina Hendricks | When I first started dating my husband, I had this weird fascination with the circus and clowns and old carnival things and sideshow freaks and all that. About a month after we started dating, he bought me this amazing black-and-white photo book on the circus in the 1930s, and I started sobbing. | 109 |
| Greg Behrendt | I've never tried to pass myself off as anything more than a comedian who wrote a dating book. | 109 |
| Natasha Leggero | I always wanted so much glamour in my life, so I have always been obsessed with class, and from dating a few people who were from old money and a few from new money in my 20s, I just sort of became obsessed with this idea of clueless rich people. | 109 |
| Sam Yagan | OKCupid's model is almost entirely based on advertising, which is the way most online media is monetized these days, whether it's the news or whether it's sports, and we think online dating is going to evolve in the exact same way. | 109 |
| Judy Greer | I'd been dating my husband for about a year, and I'd already kissed George Clooney, Ashton Kutcher and Gerard Butler. Awesome year, right? | 109 |
| Jason Lee | Celebrities say they date other celebrities because they have the same job. But I think they just like dating famous people. Celebrities attract each other, like cattle. | 109 |
| Josie Maran | I've been in plenty of situations where someone I'm dating had more time for a console than me. | 109 |
| Joe Rogan | If you can lie, you can act, and if you can lie to crazy girlfriends, you can act under pressure. | 110 |
| Melinda Gates | After a number of years dating, we decided we were good partners. | 110 |
| Nicolle Wallace | If you're dating the quarterback and then you go out with the hockey player, you just go to the hockey games. I don't think I'll still go to the football games. | 110 |
| Sam Yagan | I think for marketplace businesses, and when you think about online dating, it's not a social network. It's not a place where you go to talk to people you already know; it's a place you go to interact with someone you've never met before. | 110 |
| Sevyn Streeter | Honestly, I think dating is hard. Period. | 110 |
| Amber Riley | Back in high school, I went on dates, but I was too focused on my career. My parents were like, 'It's nice to have a boyfriend, but it's even nicer to own your house when you're 21.' | 110 |
| Anna Kournikova | I have a lot of boyfriends, I want you to write that. Every country I visit, I have a different boyfriend. And I kiss them all. | 110 |
| Daphne Zuniga | I stopped dating for six months a year ago. Dating requires a lot of energy and focus. | 110 |
| Mark Hoppus | Thank God I never got in a fight. All of the jock dudes hated me, but all of their girlfriends thought I was nice so they wouldn't touch me. It was infuriating to them. | 110 |
| John Gurdon | The earliest example known to me of replaced body parts is exemplified by a Mayan skull dating back to 1400 BC. In this skull, false teeth made of stone had been implanted. | 110 |
| Aimee Garcia | I'm dating a very high-maintenance career. | 110 |
| Christina Aguilera | Right now I'm pretty single... My career is my boyfriend. | 111 |
| John Mayer | I can't even explain to you how terrible that feels, that I equate dating a woman with punishment, shame, guilt, disappointment, reproach, reprimand, persecution. It's a nightmare. | 111 |
| Lil' Kim | All my life, men have told me I wasn't pretty enough - even the men I was dating. And I'd be like, 'Well, why are you with me, then?' It's always been men putting me down just like my dad. To this day when someone says I'm cute, I can't see it. I don't see it no matter what anybody says. | 111 |
| Zach Galligan | I knew a ton of actors and was friends with them, but I never dated actresses. I tried to date 'normal' people because the Hollywood dating rule is 'one star per couple' because it's quite a challenge to match the egos of two actors. | 111 |
| Lara Flynn Boyle | I've dated men my age, younger than me and older. The only difference is the young ones are quicker at taking out the garbage. | 111 |
| Sam Yagan | The sort of the most efficient way for online dating marketplace to evolve and, in fact, any marketplace to evolve is to have one really big market where people can enter and exit as they please, where people have really advanced search, sort, and filtering technology. | 111 |
| Tamsin Egerton | I'm not interested in serial dating; I'd honestly rather be single. | 111 |
| Anna Held | You'll never catch a man if you let him think you are too smart. | 111 |
| Meghan Trainor | Growing up, I didn't get the talk of 'Make sure boys take you on a date and treat you right.' So I was the girl who wasn't dating and would just text. I dated these guys who didn't have jobs, and I would always be paying. At one point, I remember looking in the mirror and thinking, 'You're too pretty and cool to be treated like this.' | 111 |
| Shahid Kapoor | When I don't have a girlfriend, who I am answerable to, I can go out and hang with people. But whether you go for a movie with someone or a meal or a drive, it is assumed that you are dating that person. | 111 |
| Tracee Ellis Ross | I don't really talk about my personal life. It's a strange and funny and weird thing. Sometimes you have a conversation with someone and the paparazzi snaps a picture of you and people decide you're dating. If I try to answer everything people say, I would be up all night. | 111 |
| Tyson Gay | My daughter's mother and I are no longer dating, and the people I'm most likely to date are those around me, who are athletes. | 111 |
| Michelle Ryan | I was bullied. I was a bit of a geek. Good-looking guys were off-limits. I didn't start dating until I was 18. | 111 |
| Spalding Gray | I fantasize about going back to high school with the knowledge I have now. I would shine. I would have a good time, I would have a girlfriend. I think that's where a lot of my pain comes from. I think I never had any teenage years to go back to. | 111 |
| Stockard Channing | You're talking to someone who has been married to various people for the last 40 years of her life. Dating is not really something familiar. I've never really been a dater. | 111 |
| John Stamos | I also find it interesting that a lot of people in their 30s are not married and don't have kids. There are a lot of people in this age bracket that are out there dating and trying to find love. And I never thought that at my age I would be. | 111 |
| Dawn French | That's the awful thing about dating. Tight underwear. We would all like to be in a big bra and pants and when you are in a secure relationship you can do that. | 112 |
| Stevie Nicks | You know, the man of my dreams might walk round the corner tomorrow. I'm older and wiser and I think I'd make a great girlfriend. I live in the realm of romantic possibility. | 112 |
| Usher | Appearance is something you should definitely consider when you're going out. Have your girlfriend clip your nails or something like that. | 112 |
| Nancy Pickard | Everybody knows now that Marie Lightfoot, the true crime writer, is dating Franklin DeWeese, the state attorney of Howard County, Florida. They know I'm a white woman; they know he's a black man. That's not news anymore. | 112 |
| JoJo | I feel like I am a real artist and I want to be able to feel what I am singing about. So when I sing, 'Leave (Get Out),' I have been through that. I think it is just a new generation, whether people are ready for it or not. Teenagers are dating. | 112 |
| Adam Levine | I don't date my girlfriend because she's a model. I date her because I love her. | 113 |
| America Ferrera | I've never been speed dating! I sort of wish I had, just for the experience of it. | 113 |
| Gene Tierney | I dated dozens of young men, had fun with all, made commitments to none. | 113 |
| Lena Dunham | I'm not great at dating, but I need to do it to relax. | 113 |
| Samuel Goldwyn | A bachelor's life is no life for a single man. | 113 |
| Thomas Fuller | Choose a wife rather by your ear than your eye. | 113 |
| Carrot Top | It's weird, I never wish anything bad upon anybody, except two or three old girlfriends. | 113 |
| Keith Sweat | I've never done online dating, but first of all, I have a book out called 'Make It Last Forever: The Do's and The Dont's,' which led me to do the online dating thing. A lot of people respect my relationship songs, so they can pretty much trust me. | 113 |
| Simon Greenleaf | The learned are not agreed as to the time when the Gospel of John was written; some dating it as early as the year 68, others as late as the year 98; but it is generally conceded to have been written after all the others. | 113 |
| Chris Kattan | I wish I was dating one of the ladies in 'Bollywood Hero.' They're gorgeous. Any of them. | 113 |
| Ben Affleck | Rumors about me? Calista Flockhart, Pam Anderson, and Matt Damon. That's who I'm dating. | 114 |
| Billie Holiday | A kiss that is never tasted, is forever and ever wasted. | 114 |
| Lauren Conrad | I'm not old-fashioned when it comes to dating, but there's something nice about a guy pulling out a girl's chair and opening the door for her, even if it's just in the beginning. | 114 |
| Gary Weiss | Insider trading by hedge funds has a long and distinguished history, dating to the days when people didn't know that there was such a thing as a hedge fund. | 114 |
| Matthew Perry | I used to be a real prince charming if I went on a date with a girl. But then I'd get to where I was likely to have a stroke from the stress of keeping up my act. I've since learned the key to a good date is to pay attention on her. | 114 |
| Lauren London | I feel like there is always a rumor that I'm dating someone that I never met before. People have their judgments and ideas of who I am, and they know nothing. | 114 |
| Carrie Ann Inaba | I've always gone out with much younger guys. But I rushed into relationships before really getting to know the person. What would come up as a warning sign within the first two weeks of dating would usually be the exact reason the relationship would end! | 114 |
| Ruchi Sanghvi | Just ask for what you want. I requested a six-month break from Facebook to visit my parents; I asked to switch projects. I told my husband it was time to get married after six years of dating! | 114 |
| Rita Rudner | My boyfriend and I broke up. He wanted to get married and I didn't want him to. | 115 |
| Eliza Coupe | I still have a crush on Johnny Depp, and I literally only started dating my husband because he looked like Johnny Depp - and he knows that. We've been together for twelve years, and he still looks like Johnny Depp. | 115 |
| Jay London | My girlfriend bought me a down jacket, she said it fit my personality. | 115 |
| Kristin Cavallari | I'm very open to dating and finding a guy. | 115 |
| Taylor Kinney | My mum wants me to get married - and have children, of course. She's met Gaga; we've been dating a while. We're in a committed relationship, and I'm really happy in my relationship. I'm a very lucky guy. As far as having more of a domestic life and settling down into my relationship, we have to see what happens. | 115 |
| Anne Robinson | I am dating, but it is hard to find someone quick enough and funny enough. I am quite demanding. | 115 |
| Marya Hornbacher | Were I to put myself on... one of those online dating things, I would not include in my profile that I'm regularly hospitalized for psychosis. But I do know that when I get really bad, there is a place for me to go where I will feel better. | 115 |
| Serinda Swan | I'm Canadian. The only difference between dating American and Canadian guys is whether you'll be watching football or hockey. I have no preference. | 115 |
| John Bytheway | An important part of dating is communicating. We communicate by sharing our thoughts, ideas, and feelings. We enjoy being with someone when we have an easy time communicating or when we have a lot to talk about. | 115 |
| Maya Angelou | Love is like a virus. It can happen to anybody at any time. | 116 |
| Soren Kierkegaard | It seems essential, in relationships and all tasks, that we concentrate only on what is most significant and important. | 116 |
| Chris Pine | I enjoy dating. I love first dates. I think they're incredibly fascinating studies in human psychology. When you sit down across from someone on a first date and things are going alright, you talk objectives. We want to win each other over, so how do you win someone over? You have to put the best foot forward. | 116 |
| Hannibal Buress | I'm doin' something different. I mean, I talk a little bit about race and interracial dating, but it's not the heart of my act. I just try to do what I think is funny; there's no huge message or through line. | 116 |
| Ian McLagan | It's tough to be 68 and dating. I've given it up now. | 116 |
| Jennifer Lopez | If you kiss on the first date and it's not right, then there will be no second date. Sometimes it's better to hold out and not kiss for a long time. I am a strong believer in kissing being very intimate, and the minute you kiss, the floodgates open for everything else. | 116 |
| Katy Perry | I'm really critical of my posture, it makes a big difference. And I try to suck my belly in. Everyone should do that whether you're on a red carpet or not. Even if you're just going out to dinner with your boyfriend you should try and suck it in. | 116 |
| Larry David | Golf and dating don't mix. | 116 |
| Olivia Wilde | I'm opening up my heart to the idea of dating. It's funny - my friends would always come to me for romantic advice. I know nothing, and things have changed since I was dating in high school! I'm really trying hard to spend this time working on myself. | 116 |
| Charles Jencks | If you look at Gothic detailing right down to the bottom of a column or the capital of a column, it's a small version of the whole building; that's why, like dating the backbones of a dinosaur, a good historian can look at a detail of a Gothic building and tell you exactly what the rest of the building was, and infer the whole from the parts. | 116 |
| Eric Stonestreet | I have a Tinder account. Now I've done Bumble, and I've tried this other one, and the way I justified it is that... because I'm on TV, I shouldn't be eliminated from participating in what's going on in the world. But people are always like, 'I can't believe you're on a dating app!' | 116 |
| Riki Lindhome | That's the dating world. You just keep losing. Everyone does. | 116 |
| Sam Yagan | When you're thinking about building your own online dating profile, especially on OkCupid, you should go through the same steps you're thinking about when you're going out to meet someone new. You want to put your best foot forward. | 116 |
| Bill Condon | Like many of you, I've always been slightly obsessed with vampires, dating back to the prime-time series 'Dark Shadows,' which I followed avidly as a kid. | 116 |
| Shahid Kapoor | Someone who'll bring some normalcy into my life and help me stay in touch with reality. That is something I'm curious about. There are so many actors who are married to people from non-film backgrounds, and their marriages are successful. I'm tired of dating actresses. | 116 |
| Jackee Harry | I don't mind dating younger men now. | 116 |
| Jason Schwartzman | Dating is just awkward moments and one person wants more than the other. It's just that constant strangeness. I think it's a very real thing. | 116 |
| Julie Klausner | Oh, yeah, I did the online dating thing. I did Nerve, I did Match. On Nerve there was this one guy who, when I asked him what he did for a living, said he 'used to be in a band.' I was like, 'That is not an occupation.' | 116 |
| Ginnifer Goodwin | I'm so an all-or-nothing person in dating, always. I'm big on not wasting time. And so, yeah, if something's not working, it's time to not hold people back. | 117 |
| Rita Rudner | Whenever I date a guy, I think, 'Is this the man I want my children to spend their weekends with?' | 117 |
| Chris Messina | Yeah, I think everybody has the crises of questioning themselves at some point or other in their lives. Is this where I should live? The job I should have? The girl I should be dating? Is this the friend I should have? | 117 |
| Joe Namath | I don't like going out on a date unless I know the broad a little bit beforehand. By the way, 'broad' to me is not a detrimental term for women; it's simply another word for female. Anyway, I don't really go out a whole lot, because there aren't many girls I like to take out and spend a whole evening with - at least not an evening in public. | 117 |
| Maurice Gibb | No one knew me until I met my wife Lulu. Lulu's mother used to ask, Which one is Maurice? For six months she thought Lulu was dating Barry. | 117 |
| Ryan Seacrest | I've dated some women who have turned me on to some funny things that are strange for men to actually do, but these things have become part of my process. I think the things I do for my appearance help make me look better. I even colour my hair because I like how it makes me look. | 117 |
| Candice Bergen | I didn't have a financial need, and I wasn't very gifted at relationships. I probably was more like what we think of boys as being: hard to pin down and wary of commitment. | 117 |
| Julie Klausner | I didn't write my book, 'I Don't Care About Your Band,' in order to give women a brand-new set of dating rules they need to feel terrible about not abiding. I wrote my book to make the women who read it feel good about themselves, and a little more entitled to be treated well by the guys they go out with. | 117 |
| William Shakespeare | Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow, that I shall say good night till it be morrow. | 118 |
| Halsey | I'm a fixer, unfortunately. I'm like, 'Oh, I can fix you.' But it's not just guys I'm dating anymore. It's this entire legion of young girls who tell me they need me to maintain any sort of sanity or peace. | 118 |
| Henry Cloud | People tend to look at dating sort of like a safari - like they're trying to land the trophy. | 118 |
| Adrian Tomine | For a lot of the time I was in Berkeley, I was single. I was living in a kind of collegiate apartment by myself - it was like a protracted summer vacation. So at least in hindsight, I have gloomy emotions attached to Berkeley, whereas I started coming to New York because I was dating someone, and it was very exciting and romantic. | 118 |
| Kristin Davis | I also like men who like dogs. I couldn't date a man who doesn't like my dog. | 118 |
| Neil Strauss | Dating is for tools. | 118 |
| Sam Yagan | Your goal in an online dating profile and in your first message to somebody is to strike up a conversation. | 118 |
| Taylor Hicks | I've surfed the Web and the whole dating connection. I find that pretty fascinating, but no real leads. | 118 |
| Jerry O'Connell | I highly suggest marriage to all my friends who are dating. | 118 |
| Keanu Reeves | Kissing someone is pretty intimate, actually very intimate, and your heart always kind of skips a beat before you do that. | 119 |
| Nora Ephron | As far as the men who are running for president are concerned, they aren't even people I would date. | 119 |
| Sam Yagan | We sold OkCupid to Match in January of 2011. In September of 2012, I became CEO of all of Match, which is the operating segment of IAC that contains all of the dating properties. | 119 |
| Taylor Hicks | I had to deal with being somewhat of an outcast because it's not socially acceptable to be a struggling musician. There have been times where I've felt sorry for the person I was dating. I felt she deserved better. | 119 |
| S. E. Hinton | When I was in high school, the genders were so separate from each other. If you weren't 'dating' somebody, you couldn't just be friends with somebody. | 119 |
| Toni Braxton | Dating is different when you get older. You're not as trusting, or as eager to get back out there and expose yourself to someone. | 119 |
| Gabrielle Giffords | Even though many couples are choosing to marry later in life, our laws haven't been updated to address dating partner abuse. | 120 |
| Serinda Swan | It's difficult dating as an actor because your free time is precious. The guy I end up with someday is going to have to love traveling. | 120 |
| Britney Spears | I don't understand the whole dating thing. I know right off the bat if I'm interested in someone, and I don't want them to waste their money on me and take me out to eat if I know I'm not interested in that person. | 121 |
| Charles Kuralt | I suppose I was a little bit of what would be called today a nerd. I didn't have girlfriends, and really I wasn't a very social boy. | 121 |
| Holly Madison | I've had two romances since moving to Las Vegas. One was with somebody 12 years older than me, and the other was the same age, and neither worked out. I know people still think of me as one of Hugh Hefner's girlfriends, and he of course was much older than me, but that was a whole different lifestyle and a different kind of dating. | 121 |
| Ashley Tisdale | I give dating advice on a regular basis. It's not that I'm any expert, but it's always nice to share that with your friends. | 121 |
| Hoda Kotb | So I go to my first book signing, and these two girls came up and gave me a piece of paper: '10 reasons you should date our dad. He climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. He's a lawyer.' He didn't know what was going on. He didn't even know me. They called him, and he came down and asked me out that day. Now I'm dating their dad! | 121 |
| Patti Stanger | I had to find a diet that would kick me back into dating shape, because I know that I can't date at size 8. I have to date at size 2. And it's just a fact of nature. Go get your injections and your chemical peels. You gotta look good to attract a man. | 121 |
| Anya Taylor-Joy | I don't actually watch that much TV, but I was obsessed with 'Dawson's Creek' growing up. And 'Freaks and Geeks.' And '8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter.' | 121 |
| Meg Cabot | My original inspiration was my mom: a few years after the death of my dad, she started dating one my teachers! | 121 |
| Hugh Hefner | I always say now that I'm in my blonde years. Because since the end of my marriage, all of my girlfriends have been blonde. | 122 |
| Leonardo DiCaprio | I've never been Romeo who meets a girl and falls for her immediately. It's been a much slower process for me each time I've gone into a relationship. | 122 |
| Carmen Electra | Am I still interested in a guy's body? Now that I have grown up, I am much more of a 'vibe' kind of person! If a man has a good body, that is an added plus. | 122 |
| Gavin DeGraw | So if I was dating somebody now and the relationship didn't work out, I'd take that as failing. | 122 |
| Bill Keller | I don't have dating tips. | 122 |
| Orson Welles | If there hadn't been women we'd still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends. | 123 |
| Hope Solo | I need a life outside of soccer. So I very much welcome, you know, new love interests and dating and friends and family. | 123 |
| Lindsay Lohan | My mom is going to kill me for talking about sleeping with people. But I don't want to put myself in the position where I'm in a monogamous relationship right now. I'm not dating just one person. 'Sex and the City' changed everything for me because those girls would sleep with so many people. | 123 |
| Cory Monteith | I like the idea of dating, but I'm not dating anyone exclusively, particularly right now. It's hard to be in a relationship unless you're ready to go public with it. So it's a lot easier for me to not be in a relationship. I really don't want that part of my life to be tabloid fodder. | 123 |
| Rashida Jones | Well, dating has become a sport and not about finding the person you love. | 123 |
| Sam Yagan | I get to be the nosiest friend or acquaintance that anyone has because it's - my job is to ask you about your dating life all the time. | 123 |
| Jesse Metcalfe | I don't want to be one of those 40-something guys in L.A. still dating, still going out to clubs and chasing 21-year-olds. It's not a good look. | 123 |
| Flavor Flav | I ain't scared to do another dating show, but I ain't really trying to. I want to do a talk show or something. I've done enough dating on television. I'm ready to spread my wings, and go down other avenues. | 124 |
| John Mayer | I hate being the heartbreaker. Hate it. If I date somebody and it doesn't work out, it's another nightmare for me. | 124 |
| Scott Adams | Nothing defines humans better than their willingness to do irrational things in the pursuit of phenomenally unlikely payoffs. This is the principle behind lotteries, dating, and religion. | 124 |
| Eva Longoria | I'm a fabulous date, I make sure I look good, I like hearing what a guy has to say and I make sure the evening is a real laugh. I like to laugh. | 124 |
| Sam Yagan | My friends and the people I know understand that I'm going to ask them what they're doing, how they're dating, who they're dating, where they're going and what they're doing. I'm constantly asking those questions and making sure I'm in touch with the customer. | 124 |
| Kesha | All men that date me have to know that their name may end up in a pop song. | 125 |
| Tom Cotton | Early on, when my wife and I were dating, we went to the grocery store, and I told her that sometimes I just buy birthday cakes, and I eat them. And she said: 'Really? I do, too.' | 125 |
| Geri Halliwell | I was a late starter on the romantic front. I didn't start dating until I was in my 30s. | 125 |
| Patti Stanger | Taylor Swift dates guys so she can write a breakup song about them. I don't think she's dating for love - I think she's dating for creativity. So let's get her off the market and put her in dating detox. If she really wants love, she has to stop writing music about them. | 125 |
| Priscilla Presley | You know, I had my mother and my father convincing me that he would be going back to Hollywood and he'd be back with the actresses and dating them and that he wasn't serious about me at all. So I had him saying one thing to me and my parents telling me something else. | 125 |
| Keshia Knight Pulliam | I'm single, and I hate dating. | 126 |
| Steve Erickson | Julianne Moore and Michael Keaton began in 1980s soap operas and 1970s sitcoms, respectively, such ancient history by show business standards that you need carbon dating to measure their careers. | 126 |
| Moon Unit Zappa | We had two rules growing up in my house: If you're going to take a shower, do it with whomever you're dating so you don't waste water; and if you buy one for yourself, buy six, because everybody's going to want one. | 126 |
| George Clooney | I grew up in the world of bad television, on my dad's sets and then as a young schmuck on dating shows and so on. | 201 |
| Madonna Ciccone | Things were a lot simpler in Detroit. I didn't care about anything but boyfriends. | 201 |
| Lorna Luft | Dodi got a lot of criticism when he began dating Princess Diana. No one seemed to think he was good enough for her. | 201 |
| Patti Stanger | Up until age 40, most men are just not as mature as women. So, it makes sense that a lot of women date up in age a bit. | 201 |
| Sam Yagan | One thing matters more than anything else for a dating product, and that is the quantity and quality of the people who use the product. It's really freaking hard to get critical mass. | 201 |
| Demi Lovato | It's a big responsibility dating me. Because I come with a little bit of baggage, you know? | 202 |
| Kim Cattrall | Practically all the relationships I know are based on a foundation of lies and mutually accepted delusion. | 202 |
| Seth Shostak | Ever since the infamous quiz show scandals of the 1950s, the feds had insisted that TV game shows be honest - or that at least they didn't cheat. So as a 'Dating Game' bachelor, I didn't know what I was going to be asked. The other bachelors and I were required to concoct our answers in real time. | 202 |
| Tina Fey | Mary Tyler Moore was a working woman whose story lines were not always about dating and men. They were about work friendships and relationships, which is what I feel my adult life has mostly been about. | 202 |
| Shay Mitchell | I was dating my first boyfriend in high school for a long time, and we broke up before prom. I hadn't met anyone else that I really wanted to go with, and my friends have always been amazing. So I went with my friends and got a million photos with them! | 202 |
| Rachael Ray | When men I have dated over the years whined about, 'Oh, you make no time for me' - see ya! I just dumped them. I don't need that pressure in my life. | 203 |
| Eva Longoria | You don't need to know who I'm dating. You don't need to know what I'm doing. I'm fine with everybody not knowing that. | 203 |
| Chris Pine | Dating someone on the opposite end of the happy spectrum teaches you an incredible amount of patience. | 204 |
| Priyanka Chopra | You like someone, you court each other, you get into a relationship. You're answerable to each other. Whereas, the non-answerability of dating, my God, I don't know if I would ever be able to. | 204 |
| Andre Maurois | In literature as in love, we are astonished at what is chosen by others. | 204 |
| Kristin Chenoweth | I'm finally dating. It's fun. | 204 |
| Lauren Conrad | Dating in Los Angeles can be hard, which makes it all the better when you meet a really nice guy. | 205 |
| Hannah Simone | The thing about dating someone who listens to a totally different genre than you is they can help you find things to appreciate in that genre. | 205 |
| Sam Yagan | We were intrigued by the fact that we had so much actual behavior among people on our dating site, OKCupid. | 205 |
| Selena Gomez | My perfect guy wears converse, is totally laid back, and doesn't worry about being cool. | 206 |
| Sam Yagan | My work involves online dating, but I believe almost every behavior exhibited online has an offline corollary. Really, the medium doesn't change human nature. | 207 |
| Jennie Finch | My husband, after two weeks of dating, asked me, if our relationship were to work out, would I be OK with our first boy being named Ace. | 208 |
| Mitch Hedberg | I don't have a girlfriend. But I do know a woman who'd be mad at me for saying that. | 208 |
| Chris Pine | I do like dating cynics - they tend to be incredibly funny. | 208 |
| Vanessa Hudgens | I'm not very experienced with boys or the whole dating thingy. | 208 |
| Hannah Simone | I guess there are all these women with a big secret - they're hiding men they are ashamed of. They come up to me and say: 'I've been dating this guy for six months in secret but none of my friends know. I can't give him up even though he's embarrassing.' | 208 |
| Laura Prepon | I like to think I'll just be walking down the street one day and stop and meet someone, like, 'Oh my God, you're awesome,' and then we start dating. | 208 |
| Steve Albini | The woman I am currently crazy about was a vegetarian for a year until I started dating her. As is the case with most vegetarians, she had never eaten properly prepared meat, only commercially packaged or otherwise abused flesh. | 208 |
| Jennifer Love Hewitt | Dating has taught me what I want and don't want, who I am, and who I want to be. | 208 |
| Helen Rowland | A bachelor never quite gets over the idea that he is a thing of beauty and a boy forever. | 209 |
| Jennifer Love Hewitt | I think more dating stuff is scheduling. It's needing people who understand your work schedule. | 209 |
| Conan O'Brien | Pamela Anderson Lee released a statement confirming that she has had her breast implants removed. Doctors say that Pamela is doing fine and that her old implants are now dating Charlie Sheen. | 210 |
| Patti Stanger | I have put gay dating on the map. | 210 |
| Ginnifer Goodwin | I don't know why anyone would want to ask an actor for dating advice. We are not the poster children for healthy relationships. | 212 |
| Martha Beck | Good-looking individuals are treated better than homely ones in virtually every social situation, from dating to trial by jury. If everyday experience hasn't convinced you of this, there's research that will. | 212 |
| Megan Fox | I think once you enter the dating world and you realise it's nothing like those Disney movies you watched when you were a little girl, you just become more guarded. | 212 |
| John C. Reilly | I'm dating myself by saying this, but I was the test audience for 'Space Invaders.' I remember when that was the first game that wasn't a pinball game. I spent a lot of money on 'Space Invaders,' in the form of quarters, of course. | 212 |
| Ranbir Kapoor | I'm very heterosexual, so dating women is something I'm not ashamed of. But my love life is not as exciting as it is reported to be. | 212 |
| Josh Hartnett | I don't really comment on my personal life because I feel like any comment at all is opening up a whole can of worms. I'd just rather not talk about who I'm dating. | 212 |
| Taylor Swift | I'm not the girl who always has a boyfriend. I'm the girl who rarely has a boyfriend. | 213 |
| Selena Gomez | I'm in love with love and totally believe in marriage, but that's not even on my radar right now. I am not putting energy into dating. | 213 |
| Nolan Bushnell | Women were very, very good at 'Pong'. It was part of the dating scene. The number of people who told me they met their wife or husband playing 'Pong' was huge. They were shoulder to shoulder, talking and playing. It was body contact and verbal contact. | 213 |
| Zig Ziglar | We all prospect, and don't even know we're doing it. When you start the dating process, you are actually prospecting for the person you want to marry. When you're interviewing employees, you are prospecting for someone who will best fit your needs. | 215 |
| Kimora Lee Simmons | I put my family first, and that's why for a long time, you didn't see me dating or hear about me dating or hear about me out. I had other focuses in my life, and that would be my family and my work. | 215 |
| Drake | I have an urge to communicate. I think I'm a change from what it would be like dating a normal guy who doesn't talk too much. | 216 |
| Graham Norton | I'm often dating people, but I don't say it because you sort of know it won't last long. | 216 |
| Halsey | I learned how quickly I could go from having never met someone to having the world think I'm dating them. | 216 |
| Garry Shandling | Women need to know that not all guys are going to hurt them the way that the guy did before they started dating me. I know guys I wouldn't go out with. | 217 |
| Sara Sampaio | I have no dating life. | 217 |
| Rachel Bilson | Dating co-stars is natural. When you're working with someone, it's habit. | 217 |
| William Butler Yeats | Wine comes in at the mouth And love comes in at the eye; That's all we shall know for truth Before we grow old and die. | 218 |
| Annalee Newitz | Humans have continued to evolve quite a lot over the past ten thousand years, and certainly over 100 thousand. Sure, our biology affects our behavior. But it's unlikely that humans' early evolution is deeply relevant to contemporary psychological questions about dating or the willpower to complete a dissertation. | 218 |
| Catherine Hardwicke | What does 'dating' mean? I don't know. I couldn't say. | 220 |
| Mickey Rooney | I tried to make up for being 5 ft. 3 in. by affecting a strut and adopting the voice of a much bigger man... dating tall, beautiful women... But nothing I could do, after Ava had left me, would add a single inch to my height. | 220 |
| Sam Yagan | Dating is a numbers game. What we try to promise is good first dates. Once that first date happens, it's really up to you. | 220 |
| Julia Stiles | Dating in college and dating in Hollywood are actually really similar in that the relationships don't last long. Other than that, lots of people in Hollywood tend to be narcissistic, and it's hard to have a relationship with someone like that. | 220 |
| Demi Lovato | I'm honest about the journey I've been on, so I definitely don't take dating lightly anymore. | 222 |
| Sam Yagan | When people talk about the impact of mobile dating, everyone focuses on real-time meeting - this idea that my pocket will vibrate every time a hot girl walks by. That's important. But it's not transformative. | 222 |
| Ben Affleck | I'm much more interested in what an actor has to say about something substantial and important than who they're dating or what clothes they're wearing or some other asinine, insignificant aspect of their life. | 223 |
| Eli Roth | For a long time, I had a crazy girl dating habit. | 223 |
| Jimmy Fallon | If you're a sports fan you realize that when you meet somebody, like a girlfriend, they kind of have to root for your team. They don't have a choice. | 223 |
| Karen Salmansohn | I believe that often people even stay in bad relationships longer than they should because the fear of the pain of dating is scarier than the pain of a bad relationship! | 223 |
| Zac Efron | Dating is kind of hard. Like dinner or something like that. Like a forced awkward situation is very strange. Especially for me, for some reason. | 223 |
| Ashley Tisdale | I'm definitely old-school when it comes to dating. I'm not into the 'game' so much. If I like you, I'll confront you and be open about it. Then I expect you to come after me. | 224 |
| Rhys Darby | Comedy helped me out in my teenage years. It saw me through puberty and helped me to deal with dating. | 224 |
| Sam Yagan | In dating, the question is how many Tinder knockoffs are we going to have, and are any of them going to take off? | 224 |
| Clint Eastwood | The prospect of dating someone in her twenties becomes less appealing as you get older. At some point in your fife, your tolerance level goes down and you realize that, with someone much younger, there's nothing really to talk about. | 226 |
| Lena Dunham | All my freakouts have been pretty private and directed at family pets and/or people I have been dating for too short a time to freak out at in that way. | 301 |
| Martha Beck | Good-looking individuals are treated better than homely ones in virtually every social situation, from dating to trial by jury. | 302 |
| Allison Tolman | I did Internet dating for a while, and that is rife with horrible dating stories. | 302 |
| Chris Pine | Work takes up a lot of my brain space. So when I work, it's one thing. I don't have a lot of time to think about dating. | 303 |
| Shia LaBeouf | I want my audience to know me for my work, not because of who I'm dating or what drugs I'm on or what club I went to. | 303 |
| Loretta Young | I can't imagine dating a boy, meeting him only outside the home. What's a home and family for if it's not the center of one's life? | 304 |
| Jimmy Fallon | My wife and I got engaged in New Hampshire at this lake house that her family's had forever, and it's on Lake Winnipesaukee. And so we went there every summer as we were dating. | 307 |
| Ashley Tisdale | I don't really believe in rules, but I do like old-fashioned dating where you don't call the guy until he calls you. I don't think it's like he's got to do this and that's the rule. | 307 |
| Andie MacDowell | I tried to tell them about the dating process because I'm single now and how horrible it is and how many foolish experiences I had had dating. So I was really selling him hard, but the whole time he really wanted me! | 309 |
| Adam McKay | First and foremost when you're doing comedy, you gotta be relevant and applicable to the times that you're living in. When you try and just do comedy about who is dating who and lifestyle jokes, it gets tiring after a while. It's hard to be funny in that realm. | 310 |
| Justin Timberlake | I have 20,000 girlfriends, all around the world. | 311 |
| Regina Brett | Back when I was dating, the dreaded C word was Commitment. As soon as most men found out I had a child, they ran. If I ever got close enough to say the words, 'I love you,' they ran faster. | 313 |
| Orson Welles | Personally, I don't like a girlfriend to have a husband. If she'll fool her husband, I figure she'll fool me. | 314 |
| Harvey Fierstein | I've been dating since I was 15 years old, and I just don't seem to do it well. | 314 |
| Kevin Systrom | The best companies in the world have all had predecessors. 'YouTube' was a dating site. You always have to evolve into something else. | 314 |
| Lilly Singh | I'm a South Asian female that talks about relationships and periods and dating and all these things. | 314 |
| Meghan Daum | I have a distinct memory, dating back to 1989 or so, of sitting around with my college dorm mates talking about a new term that was popping up everywhere: 'political correctness.' | 314 |
| Kirsten Dunst | I'm never going to say anything about who I'm dating unless I'm married or engaged. | 317 |
| Nas | Anybody I'm dating, I don't want them to talk about my music. I don't talk about my music to them. | 318 |
| Keke Palmer | I'm very happy to be part of a generation where you don't have to say that you're gay. It's just like, 'I'm dating a dude,' or, 'I'm dating a girl,' and I love it. I think it's a great time. | 319 |
| Blake Shelton | When you start dating another country star, the first question is, 'When are y'all gonna do a duet?' And what sucks about that is people expect you to do it whether you want to or not. | 320 |
| Lauren Conrad | I don't have the best dating track record. | 321 |
| Halsey | I had a crazy life for a teenager. I lived in New Jersey, but I'd go to Vermont for three weeks, join a commune, take pictures with the guy I was dating, come back home, and post photos. | 322 |
| Lauren Conrad | Dating is all about the chase. It's fun! | 322 |
| Louis C. K. | When I was first divorced, I started dating younger women, and it was really exciting. But after a while I was like, 'This is just dumb.' | 323 |
| Gordon B. Hinckley | When you are young, do not get involved in steady dating. When you reach an age where you think of marriage, then is the time to become so involved. | 401 |
| Kristen Stewart | People say, 'Just say who you're dating. Then people will stop being so ravenous about it.' It's like, No they won't! They'll ask for specifics. | 402 |
| Joseph B. Wirthlin | I urge you children to be patient with your parents. If they seem to be out of touch on such vital issues as dating, clothing styles, modern music, and use of family cars, listen to them anyway. They have the experience that you lack. | 404 |
| Kourtney Kardashian | I'm not a dating person. | 404 |
| Kristen Stewart | I wouldn't tell you anything about anybody I cared about because it becomes entertainment for other people, and it sort of just cheapens everything in your life. I would never tell you if I was dating anybody. | 404 |
| Ansel Elgort | There are big parts of my life that I don't share. I don't share myself eating dinner with my family. I don't talk about who I'm dating. That's private; that's me. | 404 |
| Emma Watson | When I started dating I had this kind of Romeo and Juliet, fateful romantic idea about love which was almost that you were a victim and there was a lot of pain involved and that was how it should be. | 405 |
| Steve Carell | When someone is good, but it doesn't seem like their world will collapse if they don't get the part, it's more appealing. It's like dating someone: You don't want someone who's too into you. | 410 |
| Marilyn Manson | I just don't like when there's a rumor that says I'm dating someone who is below my standards. But when I got divorced, my ex-wife said I was spending all my time with Lindsay Lohan and Angelina Jolie. I was like, 'Thank you for the big ups!' | 413 |
| Lynn Coady | Dating, like almost every other male-female interaction in present-day society, is based on outmoded and unequal social roles and expectations. | 415 |
| Wayne Dyer | Real magic in relationships means an absence of judgment of others. | 417 |
| Angelina Jolie | I always play women I would date. | 418 |
| Kangana Ranaut | My views are very fluctuating. I have very contradictory takes on the subject. Dating is easier, while marriage is hard work. You see your friends having early divorces, and on the other hand, you see your parents having a successful marriage. | 418 |
| Drew Barrymore | I think that we all have to have that rite of passage of dating the tortured artist who seems cooler than we think we are; we aspire to be like them, and we're excited that somebody is turning us on to new music or a new lifestyle. | 420 |
| Dick Cavett | The very phrase 'Oscar night' used to accelerate my pulse. For one thing - dating myself - it meant Bob Hope. He always had good, strong jokes, that faultless delivery, and always a new joke about his own films' failure - once again - to be honored. | 422 |
| Margot Robbie | Honestly, my dating life according to the tabloids is very exciting, and the most hilarious thing is that it's nowhere near as exciting as the tabloids have ever made it out to be. | 423 |
| Nikki Sixx | I know some people who've gotten tattoos that they probably shouldn't have, like the name of somebody they were dating, and that never ends well. | 425 |
| Taylor Swift | You can draw inspiration from anything. If you're a good storyteller, you can take a dirty look somebody gives you, or if a guy you used to have flirtations with starts dating a new girl, or somebody you're casually talking to says something that makes you so mad - you can create an entire scenario around that. | 502 |
| Seth Shostak | 'Dating Game' wasn't social commentary, political analysis, Shakespearean-level drama or even blunt-force comedy. It was just the televised equivalent of meeting someone at a bar. But it appealed to our most basic Darwinian instinct: selecting a good mate. You can't go wrong when a show's premise is hard-wired into human DNA. | 502 |
| Kim Kardashian | The first time I was pregnant, Kanye and I were dating, and I was just being introduced to the world of fashion. I wanted to work with a bunch of different stylists, and when you work with a new stylist, everyone wants to possess your look. | 504 |
| Taylor Swift | I'm the girl who - I call it girl-next-door-itis - the hot guy is friends with and gets all his relationship advice from but never considers dating. | 1001 |
| Taylor Swift | I'm typically single. I'm the girl who - I call it girl-next-door-itis - the hot guy is friends with and gets all his relationship advice from but never considers dating. | 1014 |
