George Jean Nathan quotes

Women, as they grow older, rely more and more on cosmetics. Men, as they grow older, rely more and more on a sense of humor.

A man reserves his true and deepest love not for the species of woman in whose company he finds himself electrified and enkindled, but for that one in whose company he may feel tenderly drowsy.

Love is an emotion experienced by the many and enjoyed by the few.

An optimist is a fellow who believes a housefly is looking for a way to get out.

No man can think clearly when his fists are clenched.

To speak of morals in art is to speak of legislature in sex. Art is the sex of the imagination.

Beauty makes idiots sad and wise men merry.

Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles.

Great art is as irrational as great music. It is mad with its own loveliness.

Beauty makes idiots sad and wise men merry.

Bad officials are the ones elected by good citizens who do not vote.

Beauty makes idiots sad and wise men merry.

To speak of morals in art is to speak of legislature in sex. Art is the sex of the imagination.

Love demands infinitely less than friendship.
