Woody Allen
A Bay Area Bisexual told me I didn't quite coincide with either of her desires.
Woody Allen
That (sex) was the most fun I ever had without laughing.
Woody Allen
I should go to Paris and jump off of the Eiffel Tower. If I took the Concorde, I could be dead three hours earlier.
Woody Allen
You use sex to express every emotion except love.
Woody Allen
I've always been interested in being in other people's movies. I never get any offers.
Woody Allen
Until you've been kissed on a rainy Parisian afternoon - you've never been kissed.
Woody Allen
To me there’s no real difference between a fortune teller or a fortune cookie and any of the organized religions. They’re all equally valid or invalid, really. And equally helpful.
Woody Allen
Better not think too much. Relying more on the body: it is more trustworthy.
Woody Allen
