Bette Davis
Once the love bug wears off, as it inevitably does, you are shocked to discover that you really didn't know the object of your affections at all. We know this to be so, even as we repeat the same mistake over and over and over.
Bette Davis
If you've never been hated by your child, you've never been a parent.
Bette Davis
