I used to think that everything was just being funny but now I don't know. I mean, how can you tell?

I've never met a person I've couldn't call a beauty.

I don't know where the artificial stops and the real starts.

The girls in California were probably prettier in a standard sense than the New York girls--blonder and in better health, I guess; but I still preferred the way the girls in New York looked--stranger and more neurotic (a girl always looked more beautiful and fragile when she was about to have a nervous breakdown).

I never read, I just look at pictures.

Uptown is for people who have already done something. Downtown is where they’re doing something now. I live uptown but I love downtown.

Look poor, think rich.
