"The husband who decides to surprise his..." - Quote by Voltaire

“Clever tyrants are never punished.”

“It is not the answers you give, but the questions you ask.”

“It is not sufficient to see and to know the beauty of a work. We must feel and be affected by it.”

“I cannot think well of a man who sports with any woman's feelings; and there may often be a great deal more suffered than a stander-by can judge of.”

“Marriage? I ain't got time for a husband or child. All my life I've looked after myself as if I was my own child.”

“Friends are "annuals" that need seasonal nurturing to bear blossoms. Family is a "perennial" that comes up year after year, enduring the droughts of absence and neglect. There's a place in the garden for both of them.”

“Men marry women with the hope they will never change. Women marry men with the hope they will change. Invariably they are both disappointed.”

“A single man has not nearly the value he would have in a state of union. He is an incomplete animal. He resembles the odd half of a pair of scissors.”

“On the whole, the great success of marriage in the States is due partly to the fact that no American man is ever idle, and partly to the fact that no American wife is considered responsible for the quality of her husband's dinners.”
