beautiful from minds profound - if I can remember any of the damn things.
Dorothy Parker

wouldn't be a bit surprised.
Dorothy Parker

gave it to.

went, including here, it was against her better judgment.

roster of Those Who Do Things. I don't do any thing. Not one single thing.

A medley of extemporanea;
And love is a thing that can never go wrong;
And I am Marie of Roumania.

Men seldom make passes
At girls who wear glasses.
Dorothy Parker, Not So Deep as a Well (1937), "News Item"

Hey all,
I need some help. My favorite quote, which applies to SO MANY aspects of my
live is "They sicken of the calm that know the storm." -Dorothy Parker. I
love it and would love more Dorothy Parker quotes. I only have two others,

"The best way to keep children home is to make the home atmosphere
pleasant--and let the air out of the tires." -Dorothy Parker

"Oh, gallant was the first love, and glittering and fine; The second love
was water, in a clear white cup; The third love was his, and the fourth was
mine; And after that, I always get them all mixed up." -Dorothy Parker

I love her simple wit and style, and I was wondering if anybody has any
other Dorothy Parker quotes. Many thanks in advance for all your efforts.

Thanx Again,
Leslie S.
