Love Betty

Famous quotes containing the words love and/or betty:

“Can love be controlled by advice?
Will Cupid our mothers obey?
Though my heart were as frozen as ice,
At his flame ‘twould have melted away.
When he kissed me so closely he pressed,
‘Twas so sweet that I must have complied:
So I thought it both safest and best
To marry, for fear you should chide.”
—John Gay (1685–1732)

“He could jazz up the map-reading class by having a full-size color photograph of Betty Grable in a bathing suit, with a co- ordinate grid system laid over it. The instructor could point to different parts of her and say, “Give me the co-ordinates.”... The Major could see every unit in the Army using his idea.... Hot dog!”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
