Spencer Matthews Quotes

With marriage and fatherhood, I've finally found two fixed points in my life. They've taught me patience. They've also taught me that I don't need to feel guilty about being happy. My emotional seasons are less extreme.

I've been married 23 years now. Gone from spending all of my time on the road to being a husband and father.

I used to want to be the quickest, loudest, and sharpest. I think as time has gone on, I've gotten more relaxed.

Does having a wife and kids change your act? Yes, but only in the best way. It gives you weight and authority. It also makes you closer to the audience because the audience is married and has kids.

I'm also married for the first time, and I have two kids. So there's some kind of good karma right now.

My wife taught me the importance of living well.

I'd like to have kids and a wife, and you know, drop them off at school and like, do normal things rather that constantly being on tour. Because I'm young now and I haven't really got a social life. This is all I do. It's the best job in the world, but I'll get to the point where there's more to life than work.

I've sort of mellowed out. It used to be: I want to be a star, do big movies. Now, being married, it's like the reasons I wanted to do that seem the wrong reasons. I want to have kids.

As I get older, I've been having a better and better time.

I've been with my husband for seven years. With my husband and my son, I get my second chance in life to be loved and be happy.

I used to say that 'happy' was like 'lucky,' kind of imaginary. But now that I'm married and have children, I find that happiness is a real space.

I'm happy with the life I'm making for my wife and son. That's the most important thing.

Prior to our daughter being born, I think getting married is another big step. That definitely settles things down personally.

I am sober, grounded, focused, I'm writing again, I like where I am. I'm real positive and I got this great family that came along with my wife - I'm happily married and she's a great part of me that was missing - and I feel real good.

My success has a lot to do with my private life. I've matured a lot by first becoming a husband and now a father. My life is in the right direction. And that helps a player to thrive. One thing is linked with the other. My private life has helped me.

I’m happily married. I’ve got more than enough to eat at home.

It is a wonderful thing to get married young and become a father.

I'm far more comfortable in my 40s than I ever was.

I'm grateful for my health, glad I'm making people laugh, glad my wife still likes me after a lotta years, grateful my daughter is growing, glad I don't take myself too seriously, glad L.A. has Astro Burger, grateful to be coming home to Harlem soon. It's a gratitude list. It works.

I would say I'm quite happy in my life the majority of the time. Earlier in my life I was more questioning, overly trying to figure things out. I like this way much better.

Everything in life is a lesson and I have learned from each marriage. Yes, I've made mistakes but every experience is a learning curve.

I think I'm better than I was in my younger days, because I'm exploring deep lyrical material, and I've been sober for a while now.

I have come a long way and learnt a lot. I read this quote about a year ago: 'Happiness must not be pursued; it must ensue.' It's made me realise that just being married again or something like that won't make me happy; the happiness ensues from how we live our lives.

My life is better with every year of living it.

I have two beautiful children, a wife who loves me very much and who I love - and my career is going well, too.
