I’ve been on more laps than a napkin.

A wise woman never yields by appointment. It should always be an unforeseen happiness.

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

Sex: in America, an obsession; in other parts of the world, a fact.

Love is giving something you haven’t got to someone who doesn’t exist. 

To love a woman who scorns you is to lick honey from a thorn.

A maid that laughs is half taken.

What reason weaves, by passion is undone.
