—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“When a man spends his time giving his wife criticism and advice instead of compliments, he forgets that it was not his good judgment, but his charming manners, that won her heart.”
—Helen Rowland (1875–1950)
“Every man has to learn the points of the compass again as often as he awakes, whether from sleep or any abstraction.”

—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
