Mary Roberts Rinehart
the theater is the only money-making business I know in which haste apparently rules from first to last.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
The world doesn't come to the clever folks, it comes to the stubborn, obstinate, one-idea-at-a-time people.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
I suppose it is because woman's courage is mental and man's physical, that in times of great strain women always make the better showing.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
Love is like the measles, all the worse when it comes late.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
It's money that brings trouble. It always has and it always will.
