Levinson: "The reason grandparents and grandchildren get along so well is that they have a common enemy."
Levinson: "Love at first sight is easy to understand; it's when two people have been looking at each other for a lifetime that it becomes a miracle."
Levinson: "Just try to be happy. Unhappiness starts with wanting to be happier."
Levinson: "It was on my fifth birthday that Papa put his hand on my shoulder and said, 'Remember, my son, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm.'"

Levinson: "It's a good thing that when God created the rainbow he didn't consult a decorator or he would still be picking colors."
Levinson: "I'm going to stop putting things off, starting tomorrow!"
Levinson: "The difference between keeping things clean and keeping kids clean was that things just sat still and waited for the dirt to collect. We kids were carriers. We ran a pickup and delivery service."
