It isnt tying himself to one woman that a man dreads when he thinks of marrying its separating himself from all the others. – Helen Rowland
Nowadays love is a matter of chance, matrimony a matter of money and divorce a matter of course. – Helen Rowland
A man snatches the first kiss, pleads for the second, demands the third, takes the fourth, accepts the fifth — and endures all the rest. – Helen Rowland
The woman who appeals to a mans vanity may stimulate him, the woman who appeals to his heart may attract him, but it is the woman who appeals to his imagination who gets him. – Helen Rowland
In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again…. We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring. – Enid Bagnold, Autobiography, 1969
