Mignon McLaughlin

If I knew what I was so anxious about, I wouldn't be so anxious.

Nobody wants constructive criticism. It's all we can do to put up with constructive praise.

Many are saved from sin by being so inept at it.

If I knew what I was so anxious about, I wouldn't be so anxious.

Every society honours its live conformists and its dead troublemakers.

No one really listens to anyone else, and if you try it for a while you'll see why.

A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.

In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals everything, and two minus one equals nothing.

When the pain is great enough, we will let anyone be doctor. ~Mignon McLaughlin,

The proud man can learn humility, but he will be proud of it.
