Mary Alice Young Quotes (Page 3)
Mary Alice: "Gabrielle Solis had always been a demanding shopper. And whatever the purchase, she always expected the very best. Whether it was exotic perfume shipped over from Paris, a high fashion gown straight from a runway in Milan, or designer shoes flown in from Manhattan. But on this day, her expectations were going to be put to the test. You see, Gabrielle was now shopping for a baby. And there was a problem with the manufacturer."

She still cleaned on Tuesdays, paid her bills on Wednesdays, and did her laundry on Thursdays. But her Fridays were now reserved for a meeting. A special meeting where she stood in front of people she didn't know and said things she didn't believe. And afterwards, Bree would come home and reward herself on the completion of another successful week."

She first came to this conclusion when she discovered her husband Karl had been unfaithful. Since Karl had destroyed the love she had given him, Susan felt it was only appropriate she destroy the things he loved in return one by one. But now, three years after their divorce, Susan was reunited with Karl once again as partners in a crime of their own. Yes, Susan Mayer believed the punishment should fit the crime. But for that matter, so did Karl."

With one person desperately in need and another willing to lend a helping hand. When such kindness is offered, we're finally able to see the worth of those we had previously written off. And before we know it, a bond has formed, regardless of whether others can understand it. Yes, unlikely friendships start up every day. No one understands this more than the lonely. In fact, it's what they count on."

But if you look closer, we can see why these alliances form. After all, a shared purpose can give even mortal enemies common ground."

Some, when faced with a bloody battle, simply give in. But for some, surrender is unacceptable. Even though they know it will be a fight to the death."

After two failed marriages and countless rocky romances she had learned that love was a battlefield, and the easiest way to survive the carnage was total surrender. But the day comes for every soldier when she must take a stand. And fight. You see, when it came to men, Edie had a battle plan all her own. Yes, Edie Britt understood the nature of war. She also knew to the victor go the spoils."

The secret addictions that consume our souls. And the diseases we deny which affect our judgment. To survive we need to find that special someone who can heal us. But we can never predict who have the cure for what ails us. Or when they'll show up."

Or a wife's enormous regret. It can symbolize a mother's growing concern. Or a lover's growing passion. But whatever its meaning, each kiss reflects a basic human need. The need to connect to another human being. This desire is so strong it's always amazing when some people don’t understand it."

For example, some can say, ‘I'm so happy to see you.’ Or, ‘I didn't realize you'd be here.’ Or ‘honey, it's time to stop drinking.’ The trick is in knowing how to tell the difference."
