Helen Gurley Brown quotes about
men dating want
The only reason a man doesn't call is that he doesn't want to.
girl sleep men
A man likes to sleep with a brainy girl. She’s a challenge. If he makes good with her, he figures he must be good himself.
men bed wonder
When you meet a man, don't you always idly wonder what he'd be like in bed? I do.
men want use
Don't use men to get what you want in life. Get it yourself.
beautiful men people
I guess anyone with a beautiful body, man or woman, loves to be looked at, but to admit such a thing is a little rough at times. That's why it's hard to get people to pose.
american-editor money
You can have your titular recognition. I'll take money and power.
american-editor bad funny girls good
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere.
mother couple father
My father died when I was 10; my sister got polio a couple of years later and was paralyzed. So there I was - my sister in a wheel chair, my father gone, and my mother a quiet little mouse. You see, it was the '30s in the South, so my mother was not prepared to cope. So I was scared to death. And being that scared, everything afterward became a struggle not to go down the drain. Struggling became a way of life for me.
successful age survivor
I guess I'm a survivor. There are many of us survivors and any successful woman of my age has somewhat of that in her.
recognition
You can have your titular recognition. I'll take the money and the power.
trying adrenal-glands good-marriage
Trying to describe a good marriage is like trying to describe your adrenal glands. You know they're in there functioning but you don't really understand how they work.
glasses years office
some bosses are so greedy (for themselves only) they forget underlings are not thirteenth-century peasants who can be satisfied with a glass of mead and three festivals a year.
college thinking average
I think I'm a fairly average person, I think I have only a medium IQ. I didn't go to college, obviously.
inspiration thinking magazines
If you're a little mouseburger, come with me. I was a mouseburger and I will help you. You're so much more wonderful than you think. Cosmopolitan is shot full of this stuff although outsiders don't realize it. It is, in its way, an inspiration magazine.
