More quotes by Helen Rowland

Helen Rowland

Helen Rowland
Why does a man take it for granted that a girl who flirts with him wants him to kiss her - when, nine times out of ten, she only wants him to want to kiss her?
Helen Rowland
And verily, a woman need know but one man well, in order to understand all men whereas a man may know all women and understand not one of them.
Helen Rowland
Life begins at 40 - but so do fallen arches, rheumatism, faulty eyesight, and the tendency to tell a story to the same person, three or four times.
Helen Rowland
Eve had one advantage over all the rest of her sex. In his wildest moments of rage Adam never could accuse her of being 'just like her mother!
Helen Rowland
Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination and bottling the common sense.
Helen Rowland
Before marriage, when a woman speaks to a man in an undertone, he calls it cooing after marriage, he calls it nagging.
