Fran Lebowitz Quotes

Vegetables are interesting but lack a sense of purpose when unaccompanied by a good cut of meat Picture Quote #1

Being a woman is of special interest only to aspiring male transsexuals. To actual women it is merely a good excuse not to play football Picture Quote #1

Romantic love is mental illness. But it's a pleasurable one. It's a drug. It distorts reality, and that's the point of it. It would be impossible to fall in love with someone that you really saw Picture Quote #1

In fact, we live in a culture where intelligence, exceptional or not, is reviled Picture Quote #1

My desire to curtail undue freedom of speech extends only to such public areas as restaurants, airports, streets, hotel lobbies, parks, and department stores. Verbal exchanges between consenting adults in private are as of little interest to me as they probably are to them Picture Quote #1

The first step in having any successful war is getting people to fight it Picture Quote #1
