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

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

Marriage is the operation by which a woman's vanity and a man's egotism are extracted without an anaesthetic.

A wise woman puts a grain of sugar into everything she says to a man, and takes a grain of salt with everything he says to her.

A good woman is known by what she does; a good man by what he doesn't.

Estimated from a wife's experience, the average man spends fully one-quarter of his life in looking for his shoes.

True Love can be no deeper than your capacity for friendship, no higher than your ideals, and no broader than the scope of your vision.
