The quotable Miss Bette Davis
"I'd marry again if I found a man who had fifteen million dollars, would sign over half to me, and gurantee that he'd be dead within a year."

"Sex is God's joke on human beings."

"I'm the nicest God damned dame who ever lived."

"Gay liberation? I ain't against it, It's just that there's nothing in it for me."

"The key to life is accepting challenges. Once someone stops doing this, he's dead."

"Life is a jest, and all things show it. I thought so once, but now I know it."

"I often think that a slightly exposed shoulder emerging from a long satin night gown packed more sex than two naked bodies in bed."

"When a man gives his opinion he's a man. When a woman gives her opinion she's a bitch."

"I'd love to kiss ya, but I just washed my hair."

"Fasten your seat belts, it's going to be a bumpy night."

"We never thought Reagan would amount to anything. We used to refer to him as Little Ronnie Reagan."

8. I recognized her voice immediately
and adressed her as Ms. Davis.

She asked how I knew who she was.

I answered how could I not.

I completed the transfer and did the :bounce: for my amused colleagues.
