Dorothy Parker quotes

Dorothy Parker is eminently quotable. To encourage you to someday read her work, I've included some of my favorites.


From a book review:

“This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force.”

"Brevity is the soul of wit. And lingerie."*

*The latter quote is a paraphrase. I can't find the original, and it is quoted by others in a myriad of ways.
