 |  |  | #7161 |  | Keep women you cannot.  Marry them and they come to hate the way you walk across the room; remain their lover, and they jilt you at the end of six
 months.
 -- Moore
 
 |  |  |  | #7162 |  | Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, half shut afterwards. -- Benjamin Franklin

 |  |  |  | #7165 |  | Lank: Here we go.  We're about to set a new record. Earl: (to the crowd) How about a date?

 |  |  |  | #7167 |  | Let thy maid servant be faithful, strong, and homely. -- Benjamin Franklin
 
 |  |  |  | #7168 |  | Let's just say that where a change was required, I adjusted.  In every relationship that exists, people have to seek a way to survive.  If you
 really care about the person, you do what's necessary, or that's the end.
 For the first time, I found that I really could change, and the qualities

 -- Kate Hepburn, on Tracy and Hepburn

 |  |  |  | #7170 |  | Life in this society being, at best, an utter bore and no aspect of society being at all relevant to women, there remains to civic-minded responsible
 thrill-seeking females only to overthrow the government, eliminate the money
 system, institute complete automation and destroy the male sex.
 -- Valerie Solanas
