More quotes by Mary Roberts Rinehart
Conflict is the very essence of life.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
A little work, a little sleep, a little love and it's all over.
Mary Roberts Rinehart

Mary Roberts Rinehart
It's money that brings trouble. It always has and it always will.
Mary Roberts Rinehart

Mary Roberts Rinehart

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
Lightning never strikes twice in the same place.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
Peace is not a passive but an active condition, not a negation but an affirmation.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
Young Doctor Arden was gong through the process of reorienting himself after a night's sleep.
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
It takes a good many years and some pretty hard knocks to make people tolerant.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
Men play harder than they work women work harder than they play.
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.
