Nora Ephron
Getting older means you don't have to shave your legs anymore.
Nora Ephron
I actually believe in denial.
Nora Ephron
What I love about cooking is that after a hard day, there is something comforting about the fact that if you melt butter and add flour and then hot stock, it will get thick!
Nora Ephron
There are plenty of men who philander during the summer, to be sure, but they are usually the same lot who philander during the winter - albeit with less convenience.
Nora Ephron
One of the few advantages to not being beautiful is that one usually gets better-looking as one gets older. I am, in fact, at this very moment gaining my looks.
Nora Ephron
Look at the parts the Oscar-nominated actresses played this year: hooker, hooker, hooker, hooker, and nun.
Nora Ephron
Insane people are always sure they're just fine. It's only the sane people who are willing to admit they're crazy.
Nora Ephron
I am continually fascinated at the difficulty intelligent people have in distinguishing what is controversial from what is merely offensive.
Nora Ephron
