One has to divide attention between having kids and a full workload.

A lot of people say, 'Wow, you're a single father of twin boys, that's crazy!' Two toddlers can get hectic, but I wouldn't change it for anything. Every day they teach me different things. The love is there. When you have a two-year-old saying every other hour, 'Papi, te amo. Papi, I love you,' it can't get better.

In large families, it seems it is hardest to be either the first or the last child. That was certainly true in ours.

You have to prioritize what you stress about when you have a child.

If you've got a lot of children, I think you let the other children bring them up more and you just sort of step in and do stuff like every now and again.

You have to put your kids first no matter what; that's how I feel.

When you have a child, your previous life seems like someone else's. It's like living in a house and suddenly finding a room you didn't know was there, full of treasure and light.

I really feel that most things are difficult at the beginning and they become fun, something you love, only after you've worked at them. Making children do something hard can, in the long run, be a great parental service.

I actually have two children now, and sometimes I wonder if that's it. Because they do make writing and directing more complicated and more difficult, especially now that they're very young.
