And I Quote

Don’t you hate people who have a quotation ready for
any situation or emotion to make themselves sound sophisticated, intelligent
and erudite? I
have tried
to accumulate a corpus of killer quotes, but with a memory closely resembling
swiss cheese, I could never get the damn things straight. Now, thanks
to The Quotations Page even
I can sound sophisticated, intelligent and erudite.

Or, as Dorthy Parker (1893-1967) used to say, "I might repeat to myself
slowly and soothingly, a list of quotations beautiful from minds profound
–
if I
can remember any of the damn things."

Although I suspect I will end up agreeing with Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 –
1882) "I hate quotations. Tell me what you know."
