Top Episodes Quotes
- “I believe that the real work of relationships isn't even day to day. It's minute to minute. In this minute, right now, in the heat of the moment, am I going to look at this person as someone I care about or am I going to look at this person as the enemy?“ by Terrence Real
- “We don't treat our pets that way. We don't train a pet by punishing them every time they don't get it right. We help them out, we teach them what we want, and then we reward them when they get it right. I would like us to treat our spouses as well as we treat our pets well.“ by Terrence Real
