Women flirt to keep their stock high, men to get somewhere.
Spring, summer, and fall fill us with hope; winter alone reminds us of the human condition.
Many who would not take the last cookie would take the last lifeboat.

The fear of being laughed at makes cowards of us all.
We are like people with short-term leases on summer cottages; we can never seem to make our provisions come out even with our stay.
