Listening, not imitation, may be the sincerest form of flattery.
Joyce Brothers
When you come right down to it, the secret to having it all is loving it all.
Joyce Brothers
The simple but observable fact is that the more you love, the more you are able to love.
Joyce Brothers
I've enjoyed the pleasures of working since I was 12 and earned all my own spending money since I was 14.
Joyce Brothers
Sex and love are like tea and milk. They can be mixed or they can be taken straight. Each has certain distinctive characteristics, but when they are combined they form a unique substance.
Joyce Brothers
As a celebrity, you get a certain number of free passes. You're actually in a better position if you're a celebrity because people care.
Joyce Brothers

Joyce Brothers
No matter how lovesick a woman is, she shouldn't take the first pill that comes along!
Joyce Brothers
I have found in work that you only get back what you put into it, but it does come back gift-wrapped.
Joyce Brothers
My husband and I have never considered divorce... murder sometimes, but never divorce.
Joyce Brothers
Listening, not imitation, may be the sincerest form of flattery. . . . If you want to influence someone, listen to what he says. . . . When he finishes talking, ask him about any points that you do not understand.
Joyce Brothers
Women who are confident of their abilities are more likely to succeed than those who lack confidence, even though the latter may be much more competent and talented and industrious.
Joyce Brothers
The best proof of love is trust.
Joyce Brothers
I don't give advice. I can't tell anybody what to do. Instead I say this is what we know about this problem at this time. And here are the consequences of these actions.
Joyce Brothers
The cynic finds love with the idealist. The rebel with the conformist. The social butterfly with the bookworm. They help each other balance their lives.
Joyce Brothers
The person interested in success has to learn to view failure as a healthy, inevitable part of the process of getting to the top.
Joyce Brothers
There is a rule in sailing where the more maneuverable ship should give way to the less maneuverable craft. I think this is sometimes a good rule to follow in human relationships as well.
Joyce Brothers
If a child is given love, he becomes loving ... If he's helped when he needs help, he becomes helpful. And if he has been truly valued at home ... he grows up secure enough to look beyond himself to the welfare of others.
Joyce Brothers
No matter how much pressure you feel at work, if you could find ways to relax for at least five minutes every hour, you’d be more productive.
Joyce Brothers
A woman should never underestimate the power of the child in the man. Sometimes the child seems to be in the driver's seat at the very moment when all a man's adult judgment and insight is needed.
