Whenever a man's friends begin to compliment him about looking young, he may be sure that they think he is growing old. I - Washington Irving

Men are always doomed to be duped, not so much by the arts of the sex, as by their own imaginations. They are always wooing goddesses, and marrying mere mortals.

They claim to be the first inventors of those recondite beverages, cocktail, stonefence, and sherry cobbler.

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not a mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition and of unspeakable love.
