When it comes to sex there are certain things that should always be left unknown, and with my luck, they probably will be.
Woody Allen

I have a great admiration for English actors and actresses and have used them at every opportunity over the years, but now I won't have to import them to New York.
Woody Allen
Image
When I was kidnapped, my parents snapped into action. They rented out my room.
Woody Allen
Image
And in all of Babylonia there was wailing and gnashing of teeth, 'til the prophets bade the multitudes get a grip on themselves and shape up.
