An industrious man isn't prosper ous because he is lucky. He is pros porous because misfortune hasn't time to chase a hustler
 Once in a while you can beat an other man at his own game. But for every winning you make you will have ten failures.
 Somewhere in every mans make up there is yellow streak. But you must first discover the thing that he is afraid of.
 If men understood women the way women understand men, the women would have to do all the chasing.
 Keep your advice to yourself. The man who is always handing out free advice is regarded as a harmless fool or nosey butt-in. That's all the thanks you get.
