Life begins at 40 - but so do fallen arches, rheumatism, faulty eyesight, and the tendency to tell a story to the same person, three or four times.

True love isn't the kind that endures through long years of absence, but the kind that endures through long years of propinquity.

A man snatches the first kiss, pleads for the second, demands the third, takes the fourth, accepts the fifth - and endures all the rest.

Love, like a chicken salad or restaurant hash, must be taken with blind faith or it loses its flavor.

It is as hard to get a man to stay at home after you've married him as it was to get him to go home before you married him.

Home is any four walls that enclose the right person.

Fortunately for women, most men mistake loneliness for love before marriage, and habit for happiness afterward.
