More quotes by Maureen Dowd
I think Hillary Clinton's a very clever politician but she would be too easy to stereotype the way John Kerry was.
Maureen Dowd
Women are affected by lunar tides only once a month men have raging hormones every day.
Maureen Dowd
If wit is the most sophisticated form of humor, pranks are the most juvenile.
Maureen Dowd
Reagan didn't socialize with the press. He spent his evenings with Nancy, watching TV with dinner trays. But he knew that to transcend, you can't condescend.
Maureen Dowd
I think even the Hollywood money people are saying they've got to get the party back from the Clinton wing. They can't, you know, keep nominating these Northeast liberals. They have to look for people who can win.
Maureen Dowd
Journalism, spooked by rumors of its own obsolescence, has stopped believing in itself. Groans of doom alternate with panicked happy talk.
Maureen Dowd
The Mormons even baptized Anne Frank. It took Ernest Michel, then chairman of the American Gathering of Jewish Holocaust Survivors, three years to get Mormons to agree to stop proxy-baptizing Holocaust victims.
Maureen Dowd
Good and evil are not like the Redskins and the Cowboys.
Maureen Dowd
It is men's worst fear, personally and professionally, that women will pin the sin on them.
Maureen Dowd
The idea of American exceptionalism doesn't extend to Americans being exceptional.
Maureen Dowd
The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for.
Maureen Dowd
When I need to work up my nerve to write a tough column, I try to think of myself as Emma Peel in a black leather catsuit.
Maureen Dowd
President Bush was once asked which Presidential speech he admired most. He replied that it was the one Teddy Roosevelt had in his pocket that had helped cushion the blow of a would-be assassin's bullet.
Maureen Dowd
IT is an astonishing thing that historians will look back and puzzle over, that in the 21st century, American women were such hunted creatures. Even as Republicans try to wrestle women into chastity belts, the Vatican is trying to muzzle American nuns.
Maureen Dowd
Women have become so obsessed with not withering, they've forgotten that there are infinite ways to be beautiful.
Maureen Dowd
The Clintons want to do big worthy things, but they also want to squeeze money from rich people wherever they live on planet Earth, insatiably gobbling up cash for politics and charity and themselves from the same incestuous swirl.
Maureen Dowd
I strained to remember where I was or even what I was wearing, touching my green corduroy jeans and staring at the exposed-brick wall. As my paranoia deepened, I became convinced that I had died and no one was telling me.
Maureen Dowd
I don't understand men. I don't even understand what I don't understand about men.
Maureen Dowd
Washington is a place where people have always been suspect of style and overt sexuality. Too much preening signals that you're not up late studying cap-and-trade agreements.
Maureen Dowd
Perpetual optimism is annoying. It is a sign that you are not paying attention.
