We are all born brave, trusting, and greedy, and most of us manage to — Mignon McLaughlin

"Even cowards can endure hardship; only the brave can endure suspense."

"No one has ever loved anyone the way everyone wants to be loved."

"We all become great explorers during our first few days in a new city, or a new love affair."

"We tell our children things which we know are not so, but which we wish were so."

"Love one another and you will be happy. It’s as simple and difficult as that."

"It is a feeling at once stimulating and flat, to know that someone you do not love is in love with you."
