More quotes by Mary Roberts Rinehart

Mary Roberts Rinehart

Mary Roberts Rinehart
Useless as a pulled tooth.
Mary Roberts Rinehart

Mary Roberts Rinehart
Lightning never strikes twice in the same place.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
there comes a time when ambition ceases to burn, or romance to stir, and the highest cry of the human heart is for peace.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
Enemies are an indication of character.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
I have a great deal of mind. It takes a long time to change it.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
What a tragedy it was that the only thing age could offer to youth was its own experience, and that the experiences of others were never profitable.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
There is something shameful about the death of a play. It does not die with pity, but contempt.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
