From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2007-01-14:

"The witty woman is a tragic figure in American life. Wit destroys eroticism and eroticism destroys wit, so women must choose between taking lovers and taking no prisoners." -- Florence King, humorist and conservative columnist formerly of "National Review" magazine.
