More quotes by Ogden Nash
O money, money, money. I'm not necessarily one of those who think thee holy, but I often stop to wonder how thou canst go out so fast when thou comest in so slowly.
Ogden Nash
Professional men, they have no cares whatever happens, they get theirs.
Ogden Nash
The bed is a bundle of paradoxes: we go to it with reluctance, yet we quit it with regret we make up our minds every night to leave it early, but we make up our bodies every morning to keep it late.
Ogden Nash
Tonight's December thirty-first, something is about to burst. The clock is crouching, dark and small, like a time bomb in the hall. Hark, it's midnight, children dear. Duck! Here comes another year!
Ogden Nash
When I ponder my mind I consistently find It is glued On food.
Ogden Nash
Ten years ago she split the air To seize what she could spy Tonight she bumps against a chair, Betrayed by milky eye. She seems to pant, Time up, time up! My little dog must die, And lie in dust with Hector's pup I So, presently, must I.
Ogden Nash
The dog is man's best friend. He has a tail on one end. Up in front he has teeth. And four legs underneath.
Ogden Nash
No, you never get any fun Out of the things you haven't done.
Ogden Nash
Any kiddie in school can love like a fool, But Hating, my boy, is an Art.
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
At another year I would not boggle Except that when I jog I joggle.
Ogden Nash
One man's remorse is another man's reminiscence.
Ogden Nash
Humor is hope's companion in arms. It is not brash, it is not cheap, it is not heartless. Among other things I think humor is a shield, a weapon, a survival kit.
Ogden Nash
All that glitters is sold as gold.
Ogden Nash
Bankers are just like anybody else, only richer
Ogden Nash
A husband is a man who two minutes after his head touches the pillow is snoring like an overloaded omnibus.
Ogden Nash
A bird in the open never looks Like its picture in the birdie books - Or if it once did, it has changed its plumage, And plunges you back into ignorant gloomage.
Ogden Nash
Middle-aged life is merry, and I love to lead it.
Ogden Nash
There once was an umpire whose vision Was cause for abuse and derision He remarked in surprise, 'Why pick on my eyes? It's my heart that dictates my decision.'
Ogden Nash
Certainly there are lots of things in life that money won't buy, but it's very funny- Have you ever tried to buy them without money?
Ogden Nash
