So, for every ten Jews beating their breasts, God designated one to be crazy and amuse the breast beaters. By the time I was five I knew I was that one. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Mel Brooks <\/p>\n<p>\n\tEven if you are Catholic, if you live in New York, you&#8217;re Jewish. If you live in Butte, Montana, you are going to be a goy even if you are Jewish. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Lenny Bruce <\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe remarkable thing about my mother is that for thirty years she served us nothing but leftovers. The original meal has never been found. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Calvin Trillin <\/p>\n<p>\n\tLet me tell you the one thing I have against Moses. He took us forty years into the desert in order to bring us to the one place in the Middle East that has no oil! <\/p>\n<p>\t-Golda Meir <\/p>\n<p>\n\tEven a secret agent can&#8217;t lie to a Jewish mother. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Peter Malkin <\/p>\n<p>\n\tMy idea of an agreeable person is a person who agrees with me. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Benjamin Disraeli <\/p>\n<p>\n\tIt&#8217;s so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don&#8217;t say it. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Sam Levenson <\/p>\n<p>\n\tDon&#8217;t be humble; you are not that great. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Golda Meir <\/p>\n<p>\n\tI went on a diet, swore off drinking and heavy eating, and in fourteen days I had lost exactly two weeks. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Joe E.

I want to achieve immortality through not dying. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Woody Allen <\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhoever called it necking was a poor judge of anatomy. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Groucho Marx <\/p>\n<p>\n\tA politician is a man who will double cross that bridge when he comes to it. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Oscar Levant <\/p>\n<p>\n\tToo bad that all the people who know how to run this country are busy driving taxis and cutting hair. <\/p>\n<p>\t-George Burns <\/p>\n<p>\n\tA committee is a group that keeps minutes and loses hours. <\/p>\n<p>\t-Milton Berle <\/p>\n<p>\n\tI don&#8217;t want any yes-men around me.
