More quotes by Clare Boothe Luce
[On Vice-President Henry A. Wallace:] Much of what Mr. Wallace calls his global thinking is, no matter how you slice it, still globaloney.
Clare Boothe Luce

No woman has ever so comforted the distressed or distressed the comfortable. on Eleanor Roosevelt.
Clare Boothe Luce
Time comes when every man's got to feel something new--when he's got to feel young again, just because he's growing old. Women are just the same. But when we get that way we change our hairdress. Or get a new cook.
Clare Boothe Luce
What generally passes for 'thought' among the majority of mankind is the time one takes out to rearrange one's prejudices.
Clare Boothe Luce
Thoughts have no sex.
Clare Boothe Luce
There is nothing like a good dose of another woman to make a man appreciate his wife.
Clare Boothe Luce
Women can't have an honest exchange in front of men without having it called a cat fight.
Clare Boothe Luce
The oppressed never free themselves - they do not have the necessary strengths.
