One holds a bottle of red wine by the neck, a woman by the waist, and a bottle of champagne by the derriere.

Circumstances make man, not man circumstances.

Of all the animals, man is the only one that lies.

Hardly a man in the world has an opinion upon morals, political, or religion which he got otherwise than through his associations and sympathies.

Behind every successful man, there is a woman - And behind every unsuccessful man, there are two.

I repeat, sir, that in whatever position you place a woman she is an ornament to society and a treasure to the world. As a sweetheart, she has few equals and no superiors; as a cousin, she is convenient; as a wealthy grandmother with an incurable distemper, she is precious; as a wet-nurse, she has no equal among men. What, sir, would the people of the earth be without woman? They would be scarce, sir, almighty scarce.

A thing long expected takes the form of the unexpected when at last it comes.
