Happiness hides in life’s small details. If you’re not looking, it becomes invisible.
Joyce Brothers
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.
Joyce Brothers
Image
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.

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.

Before your dreams can come true, you have to have those dreams.

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.

Nothing brings families together faster than forgiveness. That should make it Step No. 1, but most of us find forgiving hard. We associate it with weakness and losing when, actually, the reverse is true. When you forgive, you gain strength and come out a winner. You break free of control by the other person's actions.

Real intimacy depends on truth - lovingly told - especially in the bedroom.
Joyce Brothers
Image
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
Image
The topic of trust is an important factor in all matters of the heart - and here's why. Men lie to women. Women lie to men. And most people agree that some lying is even necessary - to avoid petty squabbles and to grease the wheels of a relationship.
Joyce Brothers
Image
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
Image
Whatever a man thinks about sex, you can be sure that he thinks about sex almost constantly.
Joyce Brothers
Image
The person interested in success has to learn to view failure as a healthy, inevitable part of the process of getting to the top.

Image
Marriage is not just spiritual communion, it is also remembering to take out the trash.
Joyce Brothers

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

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.

I don't believe in luck. We make our own good fortune.
