She was the bawdy master of the double entendre but also had some things to say about life. She is the incomparable Mae West…

“You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.”

“I’m single because I was born that way.”

“I’m no model lady. A model’s just an imitation of the real thing.”

“A dame that knows the ropes isn’t likely to get tied up.”

“Those who are easily shocked should be shocked more often.”

“You are never too old to become younger!”

“Love conquers all things except poverty and toothache.”

“Everyone has the right to run his own life- even if you’re heading for a crash. What I’m against is blind flying.”
