I Love children, especially when they cry for then someone takes them away.

I love children, especially when they cry, for then someone takes them away

If I had a girl I should say to her, 'Marry for love if you can, it won't last, but it is a very interesting experience and makes a good beginning in life. Later on, when you marry for money, for heaven's sake let it be big money. There are no other possible reasons for marrying at all.

To fall in love you have to be in the state of mind for it to take, like a disease.

Always be civil to the girls, you never know who they may marry' is a aphorism which has saved many an English spinster from being treated like an Indian widow.

Children should be like waffles--you should be able to throw the first one away.
