More quotes by 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
The simple but observable fact is that the more you love, the more you are able to love.
Joyce Brothers
Accept that all of us can be hurt, that all of us can and surely will at times fail. Other vulnerabilities, like being embarrassed or risking love, can be terrifying, too. I think we should follow a simple rule: if we can take the worst, take the risk.
Joyce Brothers
In each of us there are places we have never gone. Only by pressing the limits do you ever find them.
Joyce Brothers
When success comes in the door, it seems, love often goes out the window.
Joyce Brothers
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.
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 world at large does not judge us by who we are and what we know it judges us by what we have.
Joyce Brothers
The need to connect with one another intimately is what makes and keeps us human. The challenge throughout life is to find the courage to reach out to potential partners when our primary relationship ends and to recharge our tried-and-true unions when their sizzle starts to fizzle.
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
Don't always try to be popular. It isn't possible for everyone to like you. It's far more important for you to like yourself. And when you respect yourself, strangely, you get more respect than when you court it from others.
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.
Joyce Brothers
When you come right down to it, the secret to having it all is loving it all.
Joyce Brothers
Love, real love, is not simply a state of bliss. It is an ever-changing state, the result of time and emotional development, of trust and commitment.
Joyce Brothers
Some men are self-made, but most are the revised work of a wife and children.
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 best proof of love is trust.
Joyce Brothers
Never try to negotiate with anyone after he or she has eaten. People are best persuaded on an empty stomach. And forget power breakfasts. There is no convincing anyone of anything before 10 A.M.
Joyce Brothers
When you forgive, you gain strength and come out a winner.
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.
