For me, the highest level of sexual excitement is in a monogamous relationship. (Piven Jeremy)
The only way of knowing a person is to love them without hope. (Piven Jeremy)
Constant togetherness is fine -- but only for Siamese twins. (Piven Jeremy)
The key to any good relationship, on-screen and off, is communication, respect, and I guess you have to like the way the other person smells -- and he smelled real nice. (Piven Jeremy)
Now the whole dizzying and delirious range of sexual possibilities has been boiled down to that one big, boring, bulimic word. RELATIONSHIP. (Piven Jeremy)
People must be taken as they are, and we should never try make them or ourselves better by quarreling with them. (Piven Jeremy)
Human relationships always help us to carry on because they always presuppose further developments, a future --and also because we live as if our only task was precisely to have relationships with other people. (Piven Jeremy)
In the mythic schema of all relations between men and women, man proposes, and woman is disposed of. (Piven Jeremy)
The Inside-Out approach to personal and interpersonal effectiveness means to start first with self; even more fundamentally, to start with the most inside part of self -- with your paradigms, your character, and your motives. The inside-out approach says that private victories precede public victories, that making and keeping promises to ourselves recedes making and keeping promises to others. It says it is futile to put personality ahead of character, to try to improve relationships with others before improving ourselves. (Piven Jeremy)
The formula for achieving a successful relationship is simple: you should treat all disasters as if they were trivialities but never treat a triviality as if it were a disaster. (Piven Jeremy)
Relationships are like a dance, with visible energy racing back and forth between partners. Some relationships are the slow, dark dance of death. (Piven Jeremy)
Relationships based on obligation lack dignity. (Piven Jeremy)

In matters of truth and justice, there is no difference between large and small problems, for issues concerning the treatment of people are all the same. (Piven Jeremy)
The intense happiness of our union is derived in a high degree from the perfect freedom with which we each follow and declare our own impressions. (Piven Jeremy)
All things need watching, working at, caring for and marriage is no exception. Marriage is not something to be treated indifferently, or abused or something that simply takes care of itself. Nothing neglected will remain as it was or is, or will fail to deteriorate. All things need attention care and concern and especially so in this most sensitive of all relationships of life. (Piven Jeremy)
Do good to your friends to keep them, to your enemies to win them. (Piven Jeremy)
It is easier to live through someone else than to become complete yourself. (Piven Jeremy)
The greatest ability in business is to get along with others and influence their actions. A chip on the shoulder is too heavy a piece of baggage to carry through life. (Piven Jeremy)
We can never establish with certainty what part of our relations with others is the result of our emotions -- love, antipathy, charity, or malice -- and what part is predetermined by the constant power play among individuals. (Piven Jeremy)
One can find women who have never had one love affair, but it is rare indeed to find any who have had only one. (Piven Jeremy)
