Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

When a woman marries again it is because she detested her first husband. When a man marries again it is because he adored his first wife. Women try their luck men risk theirs.

Oscar Wilde

They wonder much to hear that gold, which in itself is so useless a thing, should be everywhere so much esteemed, that even men for whom it was made, and by whom it has its value, should yet be thought of less value than it is.
