A man is like a cat; chase him and he will run - Sit still and ignore him and he'll come purring at your feet

A man can become so accustomed to the thought of his own faults that he will begin to cherish them as charming little ''personal characteristics.''

Why does a man take it for granted that a girl who flirts with him wants him to kiss her - when, nine times out of ten, she only wants him to want to kiss her?

To make a man perfectly happy tell him he works too hard, that he spends too much money, that he is ''misunderstood'' or that he is ''different''; none of this is necessarily complimentary, but it will flatter him infinitely more that merely telling him that he is brilliant, or noble, or wise, or good.

A good woman is known by what she does; a good man by what he doesn't.

A good woman inspires a man; a brilliant woman interests him; a beautiful woman fascinates him; and a sympathetic woman gets him.
