"It ain't no sin if you crack..." - Quote by Mae West

“Save a boyfriend for a rainy day - and another, in case it doesn't rain.”

“Some women pick men to marry--and others pick them to pieces.”

“Don't keep a man guessing too long - he's sure to find the answer somewhere else.”

“A few strong instincts and a few plain rules suffice us”

“Lord Darlington (LD): I think life too complex a thing to be settled by these hard and fast rules. Lady Windemere (LW): If we had 'hard-and-fast rules' we would find life much simpler. LD: You allow of no exceptions? LW: None! LD: Ah, what a fascinating Puritan you are, LW. LW: The adjective was unnecessary, LD.”

“If you go to a master to study and learn the techniques, you diligently follow all the instructions the master puts upon you. But then comes the time for using the rules in your own way and not being bound by them....You can actually forget the rules because they have been assimilated. You are an artist. Your own innocence now is of one who has become an artist, who has been, as it were, transmuted.... You can't have creativity unless you leave behind the bounded, the fixed, all the rules.”

“Hate the sin, love the sinner.”

“No soul of high estate can take pleasure in slander. It betrays a weakness.”

“My body is not a tomb for animals.”
