Marriage is the only thing that affords a woman the pleasure of company and the perfect sensation of solitude at the same time.

Some women can be fooled all of the time, and all women can be fooled some of the time, but the same woman can't be fooled by the same man in the same way more than half of the time.

A widow is a fascinating being with the flavor of maturity, the spice of experience, the piquancy of novelty, the tang of practiced coquetry, and the halo of one man's approval.

A good woman inspires a man, a brilliant woman interests him, a beautiful woman fascinates him, but a sympathetic woman gets him.

Love is a matter of give and take -- marriage, a matter of misgive and mistake.

There is a vast difference between the savage and the civilized man, but it is never apparent to their wives until after breakfast.

Going through life without love is like going through a good dinner without an appetite -- everything seems so flat and tasteless.
