 A man's "ideal woman" is usually the one whom he passes with a worshipful bow-when he is on his way to call on the other kind

 A man's desire for a son is usually nothing but the wish to duplicate himself in order that such a remarkable pattern may not be lost to the world.

 A man's heart may have a secret sanctuary where only one woman may enter, but it is full of little anterooms which are seldom vacant.

 A widow is a fascinating being with the flavor of maturity, the spice of experience, the piquancy of novelty, the tang of practiced coquetry, and the halo of one man's approval.

 A wise woman puts a grain of sugar into everything she says to a man, and takes a grain of salt with everything he says to her.

 A woman's flattery may inflate a man's head a little; but her criticism goes straight to his heart, and contracts it so that it can never again hold quite as much love for her

 After a few years of marriage a man can look right at a woman without seeing her and a woman can see right through a man without looking at him.

 After marriage, a woman's sight becomes so keen that she can see right through her husband without looking at him, and a man's so dull that he can look right through his wife without seeing her.

 And verily, a woman need know but one man well, in order to understand all men; whereas a man may know all women and understand not one of them.

 Before marriage, a man declares that he would lay down his life to serve you; after marriage, he won't even lay down his newspaper to talk to you

 Before marriage, a man will go home and lie awake all night thinking about something you said; after marriage, he'll go to sleep before you finish saying it.

 Between lovers a little confession is a dangerous thing.

 Call the bald man, ''Boy;'' make the sage thy toy; greet the youth with solemn face; praise the fat man for his grace.
