A Quote by Warren Beatty

Marriage requires a special talent, like acting. Monogamy requires genius. — © Warren Beatty
Marriage requires a special talent, like acting. Monogamy requires genius.
Marriage requires the giving and keeping of confidences, the sharing of thoughts and feelings, respect and understanding always, marriage requires humility - the humility to repent, the humility to forgive. Marriage requires flexibility (to give and take) and firmness: not to compromise principles. And a wise and moderate sense of humor. Both need to be pulling together in the same direction.
Professional creativity requires more than inspiration, talent, and discipline - it requires an endurance that few are aware of and even fewer have.
Genius can write on the back of old envelopes but mere talent requires the finest stationery available.
It requires no special talent to be a shadow; but to be a light, you need to be burning inwardly!
It had not occurred to me that marriage requires the same effort as a career. And unlike a career, marriage requires a joint effort.
Caregiving requires the intention of love, caretaking requires the intention of fear. Not acting in anger when you are angry requires the intention of love.
Creating a high-functioning education system requires all the strategies involved in building high-functioning organisations anywhere. It requires a deliberate and aggressive strategy to ensure extraordinary talent at every level of the system, from the superintendentcy to district offices to principalships to classrooms. It requires building systems for accountability; offering parents the ability to choose their public schools is the ultimate form of this. It requires building a strong culture at the system and school levels based on high expectations for student achievement.
The explicable requires the inexplicable. Experience requires the nonexperienceable. The obvious requires the mystical.
Humor requires perspective. Perspective requires focus. Focus requires balance. Balance requires attention to the present moment. In the 'now' one is freed from labels. Success and failure, good luck and bad—they're all constructs of your mind.
Talent warms-up the given (as they say in cookery) and makes it apparent; genius brings something new. But our time lets talent pass for genius. They want to abolish the genius, deify the genius, and let talent forge ahead.
Freedom requires religion like a slug requires salt
Cruelty, like every other vice, requires no motive outside of itself; it only requires opportunity.
Straight couples don't have to be monogamous to be married or married to be monogamous. Monogamy no more defines marriage than the presence of children does. Monogamy isn't compulsory and its absence doesn't invalidate a marriage.
Almost every man we meet requires some civility; requires to be humored; - he has some fame, some talent, some whim of religion or philanthropy in his head that is not to be questioned, and which spoils all conversation with him. But a friend is a sane man who exercises not my ingenuity, but me.
Good writing of course requires talent, and no one can teach you to have talent.
An art form requires genius. People of genius are always troublemakers, meaning they start from scratch, demolish accepted norms, and rebuild a new world.
