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

The chief excitement in a woman's life is spotting women who are fatter than she is.

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

Some men are born for matrimony, some achieve matrimony -- but most of them are merely poor dodgers.

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

Every man wants a woman to appeal to his better side, his nobler instincts, and his higher nature - and another woman to help him forget them.

Never trust a husband too far, nor a bachelor too near.
