Quotations
Marriage
Find a woman who makes you feel more alive. She won't make life perfect but she'll make it infinitely more interesting. And then love her with all that's in you.
-Gayle G. Roper
"Shadows on the Sand: A Seaside Mystery"
Don’t be jealous if I spend 50% of my time with you and 50% of my time with others, because you get 100% of 50%, while all the others have to share that other 50%.

-Jarod Kintz "This Book Has No Title"
A woman is not property and husbands who think otherwise are living in a dreamworld.

The heart is like a woman and the head is like a man, and although man is the head of woman, woman is the heart of man, and she turns man's head because she turns his heart.
