Helen Rowland

A bachelor gets tangled up with a lot of women in order to avoid getting tied up to one.

A bachelor never quite gets over the idea that he is a thing of beauty and a boy forever.

A husband is what is left of the lover after the nerve has been extracted.

When a girl marries, she exchanges the attentions of all the other men of her acquaintance for the inattention of just one.

Telling lies is a fault in a boy, an art in a lover, an accomplishment in a bachelor, and second-nature in a married man.

Never trust a husband too far or a bachelor too near.

It takes one woman twenty years to make a man of her son, and another woman twenty minutes to make a fool of him.

Some widowers are bereaved; others relieved.

After marriage, a woman's sight becomes so keen that she can see right through her husband without looking at him, and a man's so dull that he can look right through his wife without seeing her.

Before marriage, a man will lay down his life for you; after marriage he won't even lay down his newspaper.
