Review:
I don't know how they skipped Bartlett's attention, but Rosalie Maggio has culled 16,000 quotations from 2,600 women for an indispensable reference work. Elaine Stritch is quoted saying "New York is like a disco, but without the music." Mae West explains that "Too much of a good thing can be wonderful." The remaining 15,998 wax wise, witty, and silly on topics arranged alphabetically from Ability to Zucchini.
