Quotes by Harry Haskell

...if I have learned any one thing over the years, its that life contains too many variables for us to be absolutely certain about anything. In the last analysis, there is no accounting for the human factor. It is always easier to deal with things than with men, and no one can direct his life entirely as he would choose.

Life would be a darned sight simpler if feelings were as easy to patch up as a piece of sailcloth.

The only way to live is to risk being unhappy...and Id rather be unhappy with the person I loved than as contented as a cat by the fire.
