Helen Rowland
Image
A woman flees from temptation, but a man just crawls away from it in the cheerful hope that it may overtake him.
Helen Rowland
Image

Helen Rowland
Image
A wise woman puts a grain of sugar into everything she says to a man, and takes a grain of salt with everything he says to her.
Helen Rowland
Image
