"Never ask a man where's he's been...." - Quote by Mae West

“It's hard to be funny when you have to be clean.”

“Woman: You certainly know the way to a man's heart. Mae West: Funny, too, 'cause I don't know how to cook.”

“It's easy to get married, but hard to stay that way.”

“Man is a natural polygamist: he always has one woman leading him by the nose, and another hanging on to his coattails.”

“How was I able to live alone before, my little everything? Without you I lack self-confidence, passion for work, and enjoyment of life--in short, without you, my life is no life. [Written to his wife, Mileva]”

“People want to believe that every marriage is perfect balance but it isn't. One person always loves more deeply than the other”

“There are two things a real man likes - danger and play; and he likes woman because she is the most dangerous of play things.”

“She never told her love, but let concealment, like a worm 'i th' bud, feed on her damask cheek. She pinned in thought; and, with a green and yellow melancholy, she sat like Patience on a monument, smiling at grief. Was not this love indeed? We men may say more, swear more; but indeed our shows are more than will; for we still prove much in our vows but little in our love.”

“A man is a great thing upon the earth and through eternity; but every jot of the greatness of man is unfolded out of woman.”
