More quotes by Ann Landers
Women who are devoted to causes, such as overpopulation and the underprivileged [sic], are much less interested in fashion than, let's say, those who lunch at La Grenouille and Le Cirque.
Ann Landers
Love is friendship that has caught fire . . .
Ann Landers
One of the characteristics of the young is I want it now.
Ann Landers
Class can 'walk with kings and keep its virtue and talk with crowds and keep the common touch.' Everyone is comfortable with the person who has class because that person is comfortable with himself.
Ann Landers
Class never tries to build itself up by tearing others down. Class is already up and need not strive to look better by making others look worse.
Ann Landers
Some people take pleasure in regaling one and all with details of their poor health. They are happy to give an organ recital to anyone who will listen.
Ann Landers
Maturity isn't a product of growing older. It's a product of growing wiser.
Ann Landers
Maturity is many things. It is the ability to base a judgment on the big picture, the long haul.
Ann Landers
All married couples should learn the art of battle as they should learn the art of making love.
Ann Landers
In recent years, there have been reports of people with twisted minds putting razor blades and poison in taffy apples and Halloween candy. It is no longer safe to let your child eat treats that come from strangers.
Ann Landers
Strong role models and unconditional love can heal even the most emotionally impoverished person, and that goes for adults as well as youngsters.
Ann Landers
guilt is a pollutant and we don't need any more of it in the world.
Ann Landers
Class is considerate of others. It knows that good manners is nothing more than a series of petty sacrifices.
Ann Landers
Maturity: Be able to stick with a job until it is finished. Be able to bear an injustice without having to get even. Be able to carry money without spending it. Do your duty without being supervised.
Ann Landers
The real question is why are millions of people so unhappy, so bored, so unfulfilled, that they are willing to drink, snort, inject or inhale any substance that might blot out reality and give them a bit of temporary relief.
Ann Landers
Keep in mind that the true measure of an individual is how he treats a person who can do him absolutely no good.
Ann Landers
You're all you've got.
Ann Landers
Know yourself. Don't accept your dog's admiration as conclusive evidence that you are wonderful.
Ann Landers
No one knows what a marriage is like except the two people in it - and sometimes one of them doesn't know.
Ann Landers
The poor wish to be rich, the rich wish to be happy, the single wish to be married, and the married wish to be dead.
