I LOVE Dorothy Parker! A few more from her:
“Look at him, a rhinestone in the rough.”
When told that a certain woman would not hurt a fly Dorothy Parker retorted, "Not if it was buttoned up.”
“She looks like something that would eat its young”
"This wasn't just plain terrible, this was fancy terrible. This was terrible with raisins in it."
"I know this will come as a shock to you, Mr. Goldwyn, but in all history, which has held billions and billions of human beings, not a single one ever had a happy ending."
"I know that an author must be brave enough to chop away clinging tentacles of good taste for the sake of a great work. But this is no great work, you see."
"The House Beautiful is the play lousy."
