A difference of taste in jokes is a great strain on the affections.

Marriage is the death of hope.

Children begin by loving their parents; after a time they judge them; rarely, if ever, do they forgive them.

Friendship, like love, is destroyed by long absence, though it may be increased by short intermissions.

The over-all point is that new technology will not necessarily replace old technology, but it will date it. By definition. Eventually, it will replace it. But it’s like people who had black-and-white TVs when color came out. They eventually decided whether or not the new technology was worth the investment.

Eating is so intimate. It’s very sensual. When you invite someone to sit at your table and you want to cook for them, you’re inviting a person into your life.

Everyone has been in love, at some point or another.

To love and win is the best thing. To love and lose, the next best.

Beware of the man who does not return your blow: he neither forgives you nor allows you to forgive yourself.

Never go on trips with anyone you do not love.

My husband says I look like a Q-tip.

Regarding marriage, it – somehow, it didn’t happen. One fellow in such a big family not getting married is not an issue.

My philosophy is that if I have any money I invest it in new ventures and not have it sitting around.
