If you fall for someone, make sure they’re there to catch you.

If a woman tells you how terrible she looks, sincerely deny it, even if you agree.
Never keep score in marriage, your wife is going to win anyway.
Be calm when your wife yells at you, calmer when she chastens you, but be terrified when she ignores you.
Before you look for dirt in people, look for treasure.
Your wife is smarter than you; know this, and you will live happily ever after.
As the sun lives on when it sets in the warmth it has given to others, you too will live on in the hearts of those whose lives you have touched.
If a man treats you like a princess, he deserves to be your king.
If you want to be happy, love. If you want to be happier, love some more.
One who loves lives a thousand years in one day, one who hates only lives one day in a thousand years.
Passion gives you what you want, lust gives you what you desire, but only love gives you what you need.
Falling in love is not the problem, hitting your head on the way down is.
Understanding is the bridge between two minds, love is the bridge between two souls.
Love sets you free the moment it arrests you.
Live each day as if it were your last, love each day as if you will live forever.
Take all men as your brothers, all women as your sisters, and all children as your sons and daughters.
If you press grapes, wine will pour out; if you crush roses, perfume will pour out; if you afflict the talented, genius will pour out.

If there are many thorns in your life, it is because you are a rose.
When people smile at a rich man, they are smiling at his wallet.
The say money talks, but I've seen it sing, and even seen it dance.
When fortune favors fools, it is to punish them for the sake of the wise.
People can hurt you, but you must still love. People can betray you, but you can still trust. People can put you down, but you must still rise. People can oppose you, but you can still prevail.
The most beautiful rose still has to contend with ugly thorns.
Don't water anything that you don't want to grow in your life.
One fish in your net is better than a thousand in the ocean.
I was never punished for my ignorance, I was punished by my ignorance.
Life is the song you dance to when reality sings.
Before you wear a crown of gold, life sometimes makes you wear a crown of thorns.
If you have never reached rock bottom, you have never attended the school of greatness.
Don’t be too busy growing old that you forget to grow up.
In poverty, friends are few; in prosperity, acquaintances are numerous; in affluence, associates are countless.
In life, those with heart certainly outdo those with ‘smart’.
At the end of every dark storm is a bright rainbow.
Lies spread quicker than truth because they have longer legs.
When dealing with two faced people, it is difficult to know which face is uglier, the real one or the manufactured one.
Looking on the bright side of life is better than looking on the dark side of despair.
It is impossible to graduate from the University of Life with no scars.
A tree will not wither and die because the wind blew away one leaf.
A tree dances for the wind not because it enjoys it, but because it doesn’t want to break.
