...love's hearthstone." A 250-lb. termagant who served on occasion as her own bouncer, Pauline can also be and talk, as she might say, rough as a cob. Not surprisingly, she turns out to be a moralist. Pornography shocks her. So does wife swapping. Homosexuals are "lovey-dovey gay boys" and feminists are YLib loonies." A harried husband, she says, "should stand up and clout the Old Lady a couple of times just to let her know he's still boss." Pauline was the John Wayne of madams, with an admixture of Mae West.

Like Hawthorne being such a blue-eyed darling, in life, and Longfellow and the rest such sucking doves." Underneath, "serpents they were." James Fenimore Cooper's Leatherstocking novels may read like adventure stories, but they are really primal myths about "the collapse of the white psyche divided between innocence...
...recipients of this startling news are the Glad Gladwyns (Fred Allen and Ginger Rogers), a Mr. & Mrs. breakfast team, who address each other by such endearing terms as "panther girl" and "white fang" when they are not being lovey-dovey on the air, dispensing commercials and "good, clean, nauseating fun"; a flouncy blonde (Zsa Zsa Gabor) who is trying to dig all the gold she can from her Texas-tycoon husband (Louis Calhern); a laconic Long Island couple (Paul Douglas and Eve Arden) who communicate with each other only in monosyllables; Mrs. Mississippi (Marilyn Monroe), a bathing-beauty contest winner...
