Lucky is the spouse who dies first, who never has to know what survivors endure.

There is no sound so terrible as a man's sorrow for his own death.

People get careless when they're feeling safe.

I know there are people who believe you should forgive and forget. For the record, I'd like to say I'm a big fan of forgiveness as long as I'm given the opportunity to get even first.

If I'd been listening closely, I'd have caught the sound of the gods having a great big old tee-hee at my expense.

Sometimes being fooled by love is worth the price. At least you know you're alive and capable of feeling, even if all you end up with is chest pain.

Lying contains the same hostile elements as a practical joke in that the 'victim' ends up looking foolish in his own eyes and laughable in everyone else's.
