GRACE METALIOUS

To talk about adults without talking about their sex drives is like talking about a window without glass.

The public loves to create a hero....Sometimes I think they do it for the sheer joy of knocking him down from the highest peak. Like a child who builds a house of blocks and then destroys it with one vicious kick.

Nude is a word as smoooth as your hips ... but naked has the sound of a rock being turned over to expose maggots.

Dead folks can't hurt you none. It's the ones that are alive, you have to watch out for.

If every man, ...ceased to hate and blame every other man for his own failures and shortcomings, we would see the end of every evil in the world, from war to backbiting.

I looked into that empty bottle and I saw myself.

Didn't you ever notice how it's always people who wish they had somethin' or had done somethin' that hate the hardest?

How easy it is, how dangerously easy it is to hate a man for one's own inadequacies.
