Dorothy Parker was know for spending more than just Friday night drinking. Here are a few of her best-loved quotes for you Happy Hour pleasure:
- I’d rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
- A hangover is the wrath of grapes.
- I’m not a writer with a drinking problem; I’m a drinker with a writing problem.
Looking for love at the bar? Here’s what Ms Parker has to say about all that:
- Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses (not true!).
- Look at him, a rhinestone in the rough ( ewww).
- Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone(ouch).
- She looks like something that would eat its young (hiss).
- His voice was as intimate as the rustle of sheets (would love to hear that voice!).
Perhaps you will not be surprised to know that she also said:
- The first thing I do in the morning is brush my teeth and sharpen my tongue!
Have a great weekend!
