More quotes by Ann Landers
One of the best ways to measure people is how they behave when something free is offered.
Ann Landers
Maturity is many things. It is the ability to base a judgment on the big picture, the long haul.
Ann Landers
Keep skid chains on your tongue. Say less than you think. Cultivate a pleasant voice. How you say it is often more important than what you say.
Ann Landers
People have one year after the wedding to send a gift. Thank-you notes must be written immediately. If you don't receive an acknowledgment within three months, phone and ask if it was received. If the bride and groom are embarrassed, fine. They deserve to be.
Ann Landers

Ann Landers
Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.
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
People of integrity expect to be believed. They also know time will prove them right and are willing to wait.
Ann Landers
All marriages are happy, it's living together afterward that's tough.
Ann Landers
Marriage is not a reform school.
Ann Landers
Some men have no idea how to romance a woman. However, women who teach their husbands what they like will be well-rewarded.
Ann Landers
People, like water, seek their own level.
Ann Landers
What we steadily, consciously, habitually think we are, that we tend to become.
Ann Landers
If you marry a man who cheats on his wife, you'll be married to a man who cheats on his wife.
Ann Landers
I was naive, but I certainly was not duplicitous.
