Dorothy Parker quotations

*By the time you swear you're his,
Shivering and sighing,
And he vows his passion is infinite, undying-

Lady, make a note of this:
One of you is lying.


*I like to have a martini,
Two at the very most.
After three I'm under the table,
After four I'm under my host


*Woman wants monogamy;
Man delights in novelty.
Love is woman's moon and sun;
Man has other forms of fun.
Woman lives but in her lord;
Count to ten, and man is bored.
With this the gist and sum of it;
What earthy good can come of it?

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