A house is not a home |
I am one of those people who just can't help getting a kick out of life -- event when it's a kick in the teeth. |
It's not the college degree that makes a writer. The great thing is to have a story to tell. |
My home is in whatever town I'm booked. |
The only difference between them and my girls is that my girls gave a man his money's worth. |
The women who take husbands not out of love but out of greed, to get their bills paid, to get a fine house and clothes and jewels; the women who marry to get out of a tiresome job, or to get away from disagreeable relatives, or to avoid being called an old maid -- these are whores in everything but name. The only difference between them and my girls is that my girls gave a man his money's worth. |
What it comes down to is this: the grocer, the butcher, the baker, the merchant, the landlord, the druggist, the liquor dealer, the policeman, the doctor, the city father and the politician -- these are the people who make money out of prostitution, these are the real reapers of the wages of sin. |
Your heart often knows things before your mind does. |
