"If I can put one touch of rosy sunset into the life of any man or woman, I shall feel that I have worked with God."
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
"An archaeologist is the best husband any woman can have: the older she gets, the more interested he is in her."
Agatha Christie
"There are three classes into which all the women past seventy that ever I knew were to be divided: 1.That dear old soul;2. That old woman;3. That old witch."
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
"A woman who thinks she is intelligent demands the same rights as man. An intelligent woman gives up."
Sidonie Gabrielle Colette
"A man's as old as he's feeling, A woman as old as she looks."
Mortimer Collins
"In America every woman has her set of girl-friends; some are cousins, the rest are gained at school. These form a permanent committee who sit on each other's affairs, who 'come out' together, marry and divorce together, and who end as those groups of bustling, heartless well-informed club-women who govern society. Against them the Couple of Ehepaar is helpless and Man in their eyes but a biological interlude."
Charles Caleb Colton
"Heav'n hath no rage like love to hatred turn'd, Nor Hell a fury, like a woman scorn'd."
William Congreve
"The last thing a woman will consent to discover in a man whom she loves, or on whom she simply depends, is want of courage."
Joseph Conrad
"Responsibility is the thing people dread most of all. Yet it is the one thing in the world that develops us, gives us manhood or womanhood fibre."
Frank H. Crane
"Father Time is not always a hard parent, and, though he tarries for none of his children, often lays his hand lightly upon those who have used him well; making them old men and women inexorably enough, but leaving their hearts and spirits young and in full vigour. With such people the grey head is but the impression of the old fellow's hand in giving them his blessing, and every wrinkle but a notch in the quiet calendar of a well-spent life."
Quentin Crisp
"A woman of honor should not expect of others things she would not do herself."
Marguerite de Valois
"But I am sure that I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round...as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely."
Charles Dickens
"For any woman to success in American life she must first do two things: Prepare herself for a profession, and marry a man who wants her to succeed as much as she does."
Cathleen Douglas
"If worry were an effective weight-loss program, women would be invisible."
Nancy Drew
"Here in America we are descended in blood and in spirit from revolutionists and rebels - men and women who dare to dissent from accepted doctrine. As their heirs, may we never confuse honest dissent with disloyal subversion."
Dwight David Eisenhower
"The tendancy of liberals is to create bodies of men and women-of all classes-detached from tradition, alienated from religion, and susceptible to mass suggestion-mob rule. And a mob will be no less a mob if it is well fed, well clothed, well housed, and well disciplined."
George Eliot
"The upward course of a nation's history is due in the long run to the soundness of heart of its average men and women."
Elizabeth II
"There's a difference between beauty and charm. A beautiful woman is one I notice. A charming woman is one who notices me."
John Erskine
"The big mistake that men make is that when they turn thirteen or fourteen and all of a sudden they've reached puberty, they believe that they like women. Actually, you're just horny. It doesn't mean you like women any more at twenty-one than you did at ten."
Jules Feiffer
"When a man gets up to speak, people listen, then look. When a woman gets up, people look; then, if they like what they see, they listen."
Pauline Frederick
