A disaster, that’s what. She thinks that before her arrival on the scene no woman ever did anything worthwhile before, no woman was ever liberated until her time, no woman really ever amounted to anything.” “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you get rid of him on the weekends.” “I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life’s a b*. You’ve got to go out and kick ass.” “Get out of the tanning booth. Leather is for wallets.” “Once I decide to do something, I can’t have people telling me I can’t. If there’s a roadblock, you jump over it, walk around it, crawl under it.” “While forbidden fruit is said to taste sweeter, it usually spoils faster.” “If you knew how often I say to myself: to Hell with everything, to Hell with everybody, I’ve done my share, let the others do theirs now, enough, enough, enough!” “I never think about anybody. I let them think about me.” “There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is in having lots to do and not doing it.” “When we find that we are not liked, we assert that we are not understood; when probably the dislike we have excited proceeds from our being too fully comprehended.” “I’ve always thought any sane woman would be a lover of women because loving men is such a mess. I have always wished I’d fall in love with a woman. Damn.” “Why not be oneself? That is the whole secret of a successful appearance. If one is a greyhound, why try to look like a Pekingese?” “Unfortunately, sometimes people don’t hear you until you scream.” “It is ridiculous to take on a man’s job just in order to be able to say that ‘a woman has done it--yah!’ The only decent reason for tackling a job is that it is your job and you want to do it.” “Life is a party; you join after it’s started and you leave before it’s finished.” “[People] come to me with their heads held high and announce that they do not eat sugar anymore, as though they have tackled one of life’s deadly sins. My response is to ask them how long they have had this problem and if they have considered seeing a psychiatrist.” “I’ll rest when I’m dead. I’m hungry and life is short!” “It’s not do or die; it’s do or don’t.” “In saying what is obvious, never choose cunning. Yelling works better.” “To be a rebel is not to be a revolutionary. It is more often by a way of spinning one’s wheels deeper in sand.” “I don’t think men see any lusty sexiness in me. The appealing thing is an air of abandonment. Men don’t want any responsibility, and neither do I.” “If you haven’t got anything nice to say about anybody, come sit next to me.” “You have to know exactly want you want out of your career. If you want to be a star, you don’t bother with other things.” “If you want a place in the sun, you have to expect a few blisters.” “I want no fences around me, unless I erect them myself.” “Either I was going to dissolve into a little puddle, or I was going to get out there. And puddles are not my style.” “The world is a round and the place which may seem like the end may also be only the beginning.” These wonderful quotes were taken from Wild Words From Wild Women, a 2002 calendar from Andrews McMeel Publishing.
