Quotes

• “Although I was too young to understand the theory of universal (that's to say male) guilt, I was old enough to know which sex suffered migraine and which sex caused it.”
• “All those words of praise they use for novels – spare, economical. Why should I shell out £17 for economical?”
• “I'm a Jewish Jane Austen.”
• “In the matrimonial life of the Jewish male every day is Yom Kippur.”
• “In the highly improbable event of his being asked to nominate the one most un-Jewish thing he could think of, Sefton Goldberg would have been hard pressed to decide between Nature – that's to say birds, trees, flowers, and country walks – and football – that's to say beer, bikies, mud, and physical pain.”
• “He was as sentimental as Hitler about applause and crowds.”
