Mae West

Personality is the glitter that sends your little gleam across the footlights and the orchestra pit into that big black space where the audience is.

To err is human, but it feels divine.

Virtue has its own reward but no sale at the box office.

She's the kind of woman who climbed the ladder of success wrong by wrong.

Your real security is yourself. You know you can do it and they can't ever take that away from you.

Between two evils I always picked the one I never tried before.

I generally avoid temptation unless I can't resist it.

When I'm good I'm very good but when I'm bad I'm better.

I used to be snow-white . . . but I drifted.

Love conquers all things except poverty and a toothache.

I have found men who didn't know how to kiss. I've always found time to teach them.

When you've got the personality you don't need the nudity.

Dennis Thatcher husband of Margaret Thatcher when asked who wore the pants in his house said "I do and I also wash and iron them." I only like two kinds of men domestic and foreign.

When women go wrong men go right after them.

Marriage is a great institution but I'm not ready for an institution.

Everything's in the mind. That's where it all starts. Knowing what you want is the first step toward getting it.

He who hesitates is last.

Too much of a good thing can be wonderful.
