More quotes by Mary Roberts Rinehart
There is a point at which curiosity becomes unbearable, when it becomes an obsession, like hunger.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
That is the tragedy of growing old, Chris. You don't leave the world. It leaves you.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
I have a great deal of mind. It takes a long time to change it.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
When a great burden is lifted, the relief is not always felt at once. The galled places still ache.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
Death was a beginning and not an end it was the morning of the spirit. Tired bodies lay down to sleep and their souls wakened to the morning, rested the first fruits of them that slept.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
War is a thing of fearful and curious anomalies ... It has shown that government by men only is not an appeal to reason, but an appeal to arms that on women, without a voice to protest, must fall the burden. It is easier to die than to send a son to death.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
[When working on a book] I have an almost complete detachment from the world I live in, a sort of armor against distraction. I talk to people, move about, appear on the surface much as usual. But later on I have only a confused memory of what has happened during that period.
Mary Roberts Rinehart

Mary Roberts Rinehart

Mary Roberts Rinehart
Suspicion is like the rain. It falls on the just and on the unjust.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
To men and women who want to do things, there is nothing quite so driving as the force of an imprisoned ego. . . . All genius comes from this class.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
A little work, a little sleep, a little love and it's all over.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
Curious, how one remembered Christmas. Perhaps because other days might appeal to the head, but this one appealed to the heart.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
There is no place in the world, I imagine, for a philosopher with a sense of humor, a new leisure, and an inquiring turn of mind!
Mary Roberts Rinehart
there is no truly honest autobiography.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
Men play harder than they work women work harder than they play.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
I believe that the matter is automatically self-regulating that those women who prefer the home and have an ability for it will eventually return to it that others, like myself, will compromise and that still others, temperamentally unfitted for it, will remain in the world to add to its productivity.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
I suppose that we are only young, Chris, so long as we can forget. After that we merely remember!
Mary Roberts Rinehart
The writing career is not a romantic one. The writer's life may be colorful, but his work itself is rather drab.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
It is only in his head that man is heroic in the pit of his stomach he is always a coward.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
