Famous quotes by Katharine Whitehorn:

"The best career advice given to the young is "Find out what you like doing best and get someone to pay you for doing it.""

"Hats divide into three classes: offensive hats, defensive hats, and shrapnel."

"I yield to no one in my admiration for the office as a social center, but it's no place actually to get any work done."

"I am all for people having their heart in the right place; but the right place for a heart is not inside the head."

"Any committee that is the slightest use is composed of people who are too busy to want to sit on it for a second longer than they have to."

"I wouldn't say when you've seen one Western you've seen the lot; but when you've seen the lot you get the feeling you've seen one"

"When it comes to housework the one thing no book of household management can ever tell you is how to begin. Or maybe I mean why."

"The great rule is not to talk about money with people who have much more or much less than you"

"People get a bad impression of it by continually trying to treat it as if it was a bank clerk, who ought to be on time on Tuesday next, instead of philosophically seeing it as a painter, who may do anything so long as you don't try to predict what."

"There are some circles in America where it seems to be more socially acceptable to carry a hand-gun than a packet of cigarettes."
