More quotes by 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
Whatever a man thinks about sex, you can be sure that he thinks about sex almost constantly.
Joyce Brothers
I don't believe in luck. We make our own good fortune.
Joyce Brothers
When success comes in the door, it seems, love often goes out the window.
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
Any man who watches more than three consecutive football games on TV in one day can be declared legally dead.
Joyce Brothers
If you change nothing, nothing changes.
Joyce Brothers
The simple but observable fact is that the more you love, the more you are able to love.
Joyce Brothers
Strong families use the word we a lot, but I is never forgotten. Family members know they have the freedom to go off on their own, even if the direction is one that we have never followed before. The family message is, We're behind you, so you can be you.
Joyce Brothers
Music is stored in our long-term memory. When we learn something through music, we tend to remember it longer and believe it more deeply. Dr. Joyce Brothers
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
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
The best proof of love is trust.
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
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
I have found in work that you only get back what you put into it, but it does come back gift-wrapped.
Joyce Brothers
Women do not dress specifically for men or against other women. They dress for their subconscious.
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
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
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
