Gilbert K. Chesterton
  • Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.

  • A man who says that no patriot should attack the war until it is over... is saying no good son should warn his mother of a cliff until she has fallen.

  • The only defensible war is a war of defense.

  • Men always talk about the most important things to perfect strangers. In the perfect stranger we perceive man himself the image of a God is not disguised by resemblances to an uncle or doubts of wisdom of a mustache.

  • Women prefer to talk in twos, while men prefer to talk in threes.
