Obține postul și de aici totul devine istorie. La fel ca si foarte multe din remarcile ei. Din care ne-am aminti ( unele le-ati auzit deja sau citit pe Internet fără a știi cine le-a scris) :
“Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone.”
“If you want to know what God thinks of money, just look at the people he gave it to.”
“The first thing I do in the morning is brush my teeth and sharpen my tongue.”
“Heterosexuality is not normal, it's just common.”
“I don't know much about being a millionaire, but I'll bet I'd be darling at it.”
“Don't look at me in that tone of voice.”
“Tell him I was too fucking busy-- or vice versa.”
“What fresh hell is this?”
“I require three things in a man: he must be handsome, ruthless, and stupid.”
“That woman speaks eighteen languages, and can't say 'No' in any of them.”
“She was pleased to have him come and never sorry to see him go.”
“Take me or leave me; or, as is the usual order of things, both.”
“If you wear a short enough skirt, the party will come to you.”
“I don't care what is written about me so long as it isn't true.”
“Women and elephants never forget.”
“I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.”
“Money cannot buy health, but I'd settle for a diamond-studded
wheelchair.”
“Love is like quicksilver in the hand. Leave the fingers open and it stays. Clutch it and it darts away.”
