I really value unforgettable moments. Things you can tell people about. We have too few of them in our lives, and it is all too seldom that we can create one such moment for a stranger.

More quotes by Gene Weingarten
It is a cliche, and it is also true, that humor springs from existential pain - from a need to blunt the awareness that life is essentially a fatal disease of unpredictable symptoms and unknown duration.
Gene Weingarten
One thing I am learning from the kitten is that everything he is doing seems to be in preparation for murder.
Gene Weingarten
Being Jewish is way stronger culturally than it is religiously.
Gene Weingarten
I don't hold doors for women. I'm not sure I really differentiate between men and women, in my door-related activities. Do women really care about this issue?
Gene Weingarten
The Jewish women like Bethany Mandel fare the worst, because they are getting both antisemitic stuff and anti-woman stuff.
Gene Weingarten
Donald Trump is showing the intellectual rigor, and emotional maturity, of a second grader. That's hardly being age-ist. This is a man who, when accused by Hillary Clinton of being a Putin puppet, actually responded: No puppet! No puppet! YOU'RE the puppet.
Gene Weingarten
The verb Garland should be created. It would mean to unfairly put a stinking albatross around someone's neck, to make him unemployable.
Gene Weingarten
Rhyme is cool again. It's because of hip-hop. Bless you, hip-hop.
Gene Weingarten
The advent of DNA testing, and the number of convictions thrown out, has confirmed that we've put LOTS of innocent people to death. There need not be any other argument against death penalty.
Gene Weingarten
I think Trump wants to be dictator. I don't think the courts will allow him to be, and I think that after months of revolting sycophancy, neither will Congress. He will sink to such a popularity trough that even those spineless, craven gophers will cave.
Gene Weingarten
Donald Trump would never belong to a church that required a ten percent hit. He's too smart.
Gene Weingarten
It doesn't entirely make sense that if 51 senators are from one party, and they can stick together, they can do whatever they want. Especially in this age of blatant, shameless gerrymandering.
Gene Weingarten
I think politics is everything.
Gene Weingarten
I don't think I could ever love someone with whom I fundamentally disagreed, politically.
Gene Weingarten
I feel like no matter what happens in my career endeavors after today, going to grad school is one of the best decisions I've ever made.
Gene Weingarten
The one thing an aspiring writer must understand is that it's hard. If you think it's not hard, you're not doing it right.
Gene Weingarten
You should support Israel not because it is Jewish but because it is a sane, secular democracy. You want Lebanon to be at peace. You don't care much about Kuwait.
Gene Weingarten
Knowing the identity of the leaker helps you analyze the likelihood that the material is real.
Gene Weingarten
The total wall is between editorial and newsroom. And unbreachable barrier. For good reason. It doesn't mean the two sides don't talk.
Gene Weingarten
Ask creative people where they get their ideas, and they will roll their eyes. It's the most common question, but it's also a bad one because the answer is inevitably disappointing. From the inside, creativity seems like an arduous task, often involving plebeian, imperfect choices, driven less by inspiration than by deadline.
