Eternity: The interval between the time when a woman discovers that a man is in love with her and the time when he finds it out himself and tells her about it.

Before marriage, a man declares that he would lay down his life to serve you; after marriage, he won't even lay down his newspaper to talk to you.

It is easier to keep half a dozen lovers guessing than to keep one lover after he has stopped guessing.

Never worry for fear you have broken a man's heart; at the worst it is only sprained and a week's rest will put it in perfect working condition again.

A man loses his illusions first, his teeth second, and his follies last.

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

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