Ogden Nash
Some debts are fun while you are acquiring them, But none are fun when you set about retiring them.
Ogden Nash
A door is what a dog is perpetually on the wrong side of.
Ogden Nash

Ogden Nash
To Tom Carlson or his dog-depending on whose taste it best suits.
Ogden Nash
Love is a word that is constantly heard, Hate is a word that is not. Love, I am told, is more precious than gold. Love, I have read, is hot. But hate is the verb that to me is superb, And Love but a drug on the mart. Any kiddie in school can love like a fool, But Hating, my boy, is an Art.
Ogden Nash
When there are monsters there are miracles.
Ogden Nash
The Pig, if I am not mistaken, Supplies us sausage, ham, and Bacon. Let others say his heart is big, I think it stupid of the Pig.
Ogden Nash

Ogden Nash
It is my duty, gentlemen, to inform you that women are dictators all, and I recommend to you this moral: In real life it takes only one to make a quarrel.
Ogden Nash
They take the paper and they read the headlines. So they've heard of unemployment and they've heard of bread-lines. And they philanthropically cure them all by getting up a costume charity ball.
Ogden Nash
I'd rather be a great bad poet than a good bad poet.
Ogden Nash
I am a conscientious man, when I throw rocks at seabirds I leave no tern unstoned.
Ogden Nash
In real life, it takes only one to make a quarrel.
Ogden Nash
Bankers are just like everybody else, except richer.
Ogden Nash
Whether elected or appointed he considers himself the Lord's anointed, and indeed the ointment lingers on him so thick you can't get your fingers on him.
Ogden Nash
The turtle lives 'twixt plated decks Which practically conceal its sex I think it clever of the turtle In such a fix to be so fertile.
