Woody Allen
The curtain rises on a vast primitive wasteland, not unlike certain parts of New jersey.
Woody Allen
Is sex dirty? Only when it's being done right.
Woody Allen
Am I my brother's keeper? Yes. Interestingly, in my case, I share that honor with the Prospect Park Zoo.
Woody Allen

Woody Allen
Death is an acquired trait.
Woody Allen
Life is short. Short, and not about anything except what you can touch and what touches you.
Woody Allen
In short, the best thing to do is behave in a manner befitting one's age. If you are sixteen or under, try not to go bald.
