Love is what happens to a man and woman who don't know each other

A woman can forgive a man for the harm he does her, but she can never forgive him for the sacrifices he makes on her account

A woman may be as wicked as she likes, but if she isn't pretty it won't do her much good

The great tragedy of life is not that men perish, but that they cease to love.

A man who is a politician at forty is a statesman at three score and ten. It is at this age, when he would be too old to be a clerk or a gardener or a police-court magistrate, that he is ripe to govern a country.

It's a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it.
