Rita Mae Brown
Death is a greatly overrated experience. I hated Mother's and I'm not looking forward to my own. Apart from the sorrow there are the bills to be paid. Nobody dies for free.
Rita Mae Brown
Mother believed in enjoying herself. Aunt Mimi believed in enjoying herself, then feeling guilty about it.
Rita Mae Brown
whoever said progress was a positive thing has never been to Florida or California.
Rita Mae Brown
Why marry a woman if you're going to betray her, and if you're going to betray her, why beat her? The fault is not hers ... I sometimes think the worst we do, we do behind closed doors.
Rita Mae Brown
Nothing is unnatural - just untried.
