I have found in work that you only get back what you put into it, but it does come back gift-wrapped.

Feeling gratitude isn't born in us-it's something we are taught, and in turn, we teach our children.

Image
Men have two basic needs. Neither of them, no matter what they say, is sex. They need love and they need work. And work takes priority over love. If a woman could know only one fact about men and work, it should be that work is the most seductive mistress most men ever have.

The only people who don't make mistakes are the people who don't do anything.

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.

Image
When success comes in the door, it seems, love often goes out the window.

Some men are self-made, but most are the revised work of a wife and children.

If you change nothing, nothing changes.

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.

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
Image
Whatever a man thinks about sex, you can be sure that he thinks about sex almost constantly.

Men are not conditioned to be less powerful than a woman. It will be the wise woman who realizes this and is sensitive to that issue.
