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

A woman flees from temptation, but a man just crawls away from it in the cheerful hope that it may overtake him.

After marriage, a woman's sight becomes so keen that she can see right through her husband without looking at him, and a man's so dull that he can look right through his wife without seeing her.

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

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

The tenderest spot in a man's make-up is sometimes the bald spot on top of his head.

Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination and bottling the common sense.
