Quotations by Mae West (1892–1980)

- I wrote the story myself. It's about a girl who lost her reputation and never missed it.

- It is better to be looked over than overlooked.

- It's not the men in my life that count, it's the life in my men.

- When women go wrong, men go right after them.

- I feel like a million tonight --- but one at a time.

- Say what you want about long dresses, but they cover a multitude of shins.

- Keep a diary, and someday it'll keep you.

- A woman is like a tea bag, you never know how strong she is until you put her in hot water.
