In order to plan your future wisely, it is necessary that you understand and appreciate your past.

It is one of those quirks of human nature that you love the person whom you treat well, not necessarily the person who treats you well.

We can win the struggle to avoid responsibility for our personal lives, but if we do, what we lose is our lives.

Almost anything can be stretched to serve more people by being added to a white sauce or canned gravy or undiluted or very slightly diluted canned soup and served over noodles or rice. With chops or chocolate eclairs, however, the only solution is to claim you don't like them.

At what age should one marry? As a rule of thumb, perhaps not until you are past the age of feeling strongly that you must marry.

One does not marry to become a judge of the spouse's behavior. If a marriage license is mistaken for a hunting license and disapproval, punishment, and threat of withdrawal of love are employed as weapons, all one bags is one's own unhappiness.

We find what we expect to find. We do not see the world as it is but as we are.
