Marriage is like twirling a baton, turning hand springs or eating with chopsticks. It looks easy until you try it.

A man seldom thinks of marrying when he meets his ideal woman; he waits until he gets the marrying fever and then idealizes the first woman he happens to meet.

Marriage is the miracle that transforms a kiss from a pleasure into a duty.

Woman: the peg on which the wit hangs his jest, the preacher his text, the cynic his grouch and the sinner his justification.

The feminine vanity-case is the graveyard of masculine illusions.

The follies which a man regrets the most in his life are those which he didn't commit when he had the opportunity.

No man can understand why a woman shouldn't prefer a good reputation to a good time.
