I was going with someone for a few years, but we broke up. It was one of those things. He wanted to get married, and I didn't want him to.
Men are self-confident because they grow up identifying with super-heroes. Women have bad self-images because they grow up identifying with Barbie.
Men forget everything; women remember everything. That's why men need instant replay in sports. They've already forgotten what's happened.
Cats are a waste of fur.
I get a lot of return business. I think it's all those years I put in traveling around the country; people saw me before and had a good time so they want to see me again.
Most turkeys taste better the day after; my mother's tasted better the day before.
I knew so little about money I used to sign my check, "Love, Rita."
I suffer from peroxide phobia. Every time I've gotten near a blond woman, something of mine has disappeared. Jobs, boyfriends... one time an angora sweater leaped right off my body.
How can I have morning sickness when I don't get up till noon?
Oh, my God. I've just told you how old I am. Nobody knows how old I am. I'm going to have to kill you now.
I had the most boring office job in the world...I used to clean the windows on envelopes.
They usually have two tellers in my local bank, except when it's very busy, when they have one.
I'm a very simple person. I'm very shallow. Shallow, simple, easily pleased: that's me.
There are different kinds of humor, some is sarcastic, some introspective. Introspective fit my personality better.
