Quote by Dorothy Parker (1893-1967)

• Guns aren't lawful; nooses give; gas smells awful. So you might as well live.

• I'm never going to be famous. My name will never be writ large on the roster of Those Who Do Things. I don't do any thing. Not one single thing. I used to bite my nails, but I don't even do that any more.

• Love is like quicksilver in the hand. Leave the fingers open and it stays. Clutch it, and it darts away.

• They sicken of the calm who know the storm.

• The first thing I do in the morning is brush my teeth and sharpen my tongue.

• The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity.
