It's risky in a marriage for a man to come home too late, but it can sometimes pose an even greater risk if he comes home too early.

Women like silent men. They think they're listening.

When I give a lecture, I accept that people look at their watches, but what I do not tolerate is when they look at it and raise it to their ear to find out if it stopped.

This is courtship all the world over - the man all tongue; the woman all ears.

Politics makes estranged bedfellows.

I've always been very determined, ever since I was a little girl, to make my way.
