More quotes by Joyce Brothers
Credit buying is much like being drunk. The buzz happens immediately and gives you a lift... The hangover comes the day after.
Joyce Brothers
No matter how lovesick a woman is, she shouldn't take the first pill that comes along!
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
The best proof of love is trust.
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
If you change nothing, nothing changes.
Joyce Brothers
Some men are self-made, but most are the revised work of a wife and children.
Joyce Brothers
Marriage is not just spiritual communion, it is also remembering to take out the trash.
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
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
My husband and I have never considered divorce... murder sometimes, but never divorce.
Joyce Brothers
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.
Joyce Brothers
Studies indicate that the one quality all successful people have is persistence. They're willing to spend more time accomplishing a task and to persevere in the face of many difficult odds. There's a very positive relationship between people's ability to accomplish any task and the time they're willing to spend on it.
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
I don't believe in luck. We make our own good fortune.
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
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
There's a very positive relationship between people's ability to accomplish any task and the time they're willing to spend on it.
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
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.
