More marriages are ruined nowadays by the common sense of the husband than by anything else. How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being.
It is most dangerous nowadays for a husband to pay any attention to his wife in public. It always makes people think that he beats her when they're alone. The world has grown so suspicious of anything that looks like a happy married life.
In married life affection comes when people thoroughly dislike each other.
Passion makes one think in a circle.
To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance.
For lovers to elope is cowardly; it is running away from danger; and danger has become so rare in modern life.
Faithfulness is to the emotional life what consistency is to the life of the intellect: simply a confession of failures.
How exaggerated is the importance of faith! Even in love it is but physiological, indipendently from will. Young men want to be faithful, and are not: old men want to be faithless and cannot.
The Book of Life begins with a man and a woman in a garden. It ends with Revelations.
