When a man meets catastrophe on the road, he looks in his purse, but a woman looks in her mirror. Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy. If someone wants a sheep, then that means that he exists. My personal hobbies are reading, listening to music, and silence. By whom? It is better to be looked over than overlooked. The penalty of success is to be bored by people who used to snub you. Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere. If you educate a man you educate a person, but if you educate a woman you educate a family. This Englishwoman is so refined I love acting. It is so much more real than life. I would venture to guess that Anon, who wrote so many poems without signing them, was often a woman. Literature is strewn with the wreckage of those who have minded beyond reason the opinion of others. Acting is standing up naked and turning around very slowly. The lovely thing about being forty is that you can appreciate twenty-five- year-old men more. Some people say that cats are sneaky, evil, and cruel. True, and they have many other fine qualities as well. My husband said he wanted to have a relationship with a redhead, so I dyed my hair. Actions lie louder than words. There is not one female comic who was beautiful as a little girl. All creative people should be required to leave California for three months every year. It is easier to live through someone else than to become complete yourself. Lack of education is an extraordinary handicap when one is being offensive. Egotism -- usually just a case of mistaken nonentity. If it were natural for father to care for their sons, they would not need so many laws commanding them to do so. We can lie in the language of dress or try ot tell the truth; but unless we are naked and bald, it is impossible to be silent. Friendship is not possible between two women, one of whom is very well dressed. If the world were a logical place, men would ride side saddle. The world wants to be cheated. So cheat. There is nothing like a good dose of another woman to make a man appreciate his wife. I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them. A lady is one who never shows her underwear unintentionally. The woman whose behavior indicates that she will make a scene if she is told the truth asks to be deceived. Experience: A comb life gives you after you lose your hair. Excessive literary production is a social offense. To fall in love you have to be in the state of mind for it to take, like a disease. The rule is perfect: in all matters of opinion our adversaries are insane. In love there are things --- bodies and words. Loves conquers all things except poverty and toothache. Love is the difficult realization that something other than oneself is real. Never give up and never face the facts. In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals everything, and two minus one equals nothing. No nice men are good at getting taxis. The first time Adam had a chance, he laid the blame on woman. Some couples go over their budgets very carefully every month, other just go over them. I was born at the age of twelve on an MGM lot. I believe in censorship. I made a fortune out of it. I wish the government would put a tax on pianos for the incompetent. Politician talk themselves red, white, and blue in the face. They say that women talk too much.
