That would be a good thing for them to cut on my tombstone:... - Dorothy Parker

"I require three things in a man: he must be handsome, ruthless, and stupid."

"If you have any young friends who aspire to become writers, the second greatest favor you can do them is to present them with copies of The Elements of Style. The first greatest, of course, is to shoot them now, while they’re happy."

"Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses."

"Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone."

"I hate writing, I love having written."
