Hey, single malt scotch, youre thirty years old. When are you going to settle down and get married to my stomach? — © Stephen Colbert
Hey, single malt scotch, youre thirty years old. When are you going to settle down and get married to my stomach?
Yeah, tell me I'm a bottle of single malt scotch, she thought. That's the way to my heart.
So yeah, anyway - I'm thirty-four and my mother is desperate for me to get married. She thinks settling down is what you should be doing at thirty-four. How would she like it if I turned to her the day she hits eighty and said: 'Hey, Mum - when are you going to break your hip? All your friends are breaking theirs'?
My mother wants me to settle down and have children! I'm aware that it's a mother's concern and I respect it. But I can't get married because I have to get married. I have to be in love with the woman I commit to.
If youre going to use standards as criteria for signing musicians, you can sign thousands. If youre going to use some sort of conceptual interpretation thats based on the tradition of those standards, but is trying to move away from it, youre down to about 10 people or so.
Now, settle down, settle down. Hell, I'm an old man, it's early in the morning and I'm gathering my thoughts here.
I was single when I was first elected to Congress - and at 35 years old, I had given up the hope that I'd find my own 'Mr. Wonderful,' get married, and have a family.
Within 2 years Im predicting...that youre going to see a suitcase nuke in this country. Youre probably going to see a release in a few years of something communicable. & I am predicting that you will see a lot of conventional bombings...in the next year or so.
Every man has to settle down eventually. You know why you gotta settle down eventually? Because you don't want to be the old guy in the club. You know what I'm talking about. Every club you go into, there's always some old guy. He ain't really old, just a little too old to be in the club.
There were years when I was a beer and tequila guy, then I got real fat. And then I found that you could actually go on a diet and drink scotch. Then I got hooked on scotch, and if you get hooked on scotch, then everything else just tastes wrong.
I'm thirty years old, but I read at the thirty-four-year-old level.
Men don't settle down because of the right woman. They settle down because they are finally ready for it. Whatever woman they're dating when they get ready is the one they settle down with, not necessarily the best one or the prettiest, just the one who happened to be on hand when the time got to be right. Unromantic, but still true.
It used to be that you came out of school, and you got married - those who were going to get married. But my peers are getting married in their early 30s, so now there's like this extra 10 years of that angst.
I may or may not get married but I will settle down in a live-in.
Cervantes married in 1584, when he was thirty-seven and Catalina was nineteen. The marriage lasted thirty years, but Cervantes may have spent only about half of them with his wife.
If youre going to spend two or three years of your life working on something, youve got to be making the kind of movie that discusses and influences the culture and is engaged in the world youre living in.
You have to be with the right person. Its so much more important to meet the right person, whether youre married or not, than it is to get married and get a divorce.
