"I can make a General in five minutes but a good horse is hard to replace." - Abraham Lincoln

Beauty and the Beast. Why did we need this movie 34 times? Well, the moral of the story is that women can see the good in an ugly man's heart and fall in love. But the other side of that coin, ugly ladies, is that even an actual donkey monster can do better than you. That's a truly insane moral to get pounded into our brains by so many different movies. My theory is that a vast conspiracy of ugly men control everything, and the fact that I have no proof can only mean I'm far too handsome to be let in on it.

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

"I require three things in a man: he must be handsome, ruthless, and stupid."

"All I need is room enough to lay a hat, and a few friends."

"I'm not a writer with a drinking problem, I'm a drinker with a writing problem."

"If you want to know what God thinks of money, just look at who he gave it to."

"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."

Heck, you could have a whole thread just for Dorothy Parker quotes.

From a book review: "This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force."
