Anne Roiphe Quotes

I Carried With Me Into The West End Bar, The White Horse Tavern, A Long List Of Things I Would Never Do: I Would Never Have My Hair Set In A Beauty Parlor. I Would Never Move To A Suburb And Bake Cakes Or Make Casseroles. I Would Never Go To A Country Club Dance, Although I Did Like The Paper Lanterns Casting Rainbow Colors On The Terrace. I Would Never Invest In The Stock Market. I Would Never Play Canasta. I Would Never Wear Pearls. I Would Love Like A Nursling But I Would Never Go Near A Man Who Had A Portfolio Or A Set Of Golf Clubs Or A Business Or Even A Business Suit. I Would Only Love A Wild Thing. I Didn't Care If Wild Things Tended To Break Hearts. I Didn't Care If They Substituted Scotch For Breakfast Cereal. I Understood That Wild Things Wrote Suicide Notes To The Gods And Were Apt To Show Up Three Hours Later Than Promised. I Understood That Art Was Long And Life Was Short.
