Smiles are the soul's kisses.

We women take love too seriously. Men wish to be loved with laughter, not with sighing. So laugh, sweetheart, laugh, or soon you may be weeping.

The bride and groom-May their joys be as bright as the morning, and their sorrows but shadows that fade in the sunlight of love.

A beautiful woman delights the eye; a wise woman, the understanding; a pure one, the soul.

Man proposes, woman forecloses.

Matrimonially speaking, a bridle for the tongue is better than a rein for the heart.

Between flattery and admiration there often flows a river of contempt.
