Famous quotes by fanny brice:

    Men always fall for frigid women because they put on the best show.
    Fanny Brice (1891–1951)

    Being a funny person does an awful lot of things to you. You feel that you mustn’t get serious with people. They don’t expect it from you, and they don’t want to see it. You’re not entitled to be serious, you’re a clown, and they only want you to make them laugh.
    Fanny Brice (1891–1951)
