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
If you want your children to listen, try talking softly - to someone else.
Ann Landers
Class is considerate of others. It knows that good manners is nothing more than a series of petty sacrifices.
Ann Landers
One trouble with trouble is that it usually starts out like fun.
Ann Landers
