“But the main thing I’ve learned, I learned all by myself, no help needed. I learned not to get my tongue pierced. Because if you’re getting it pierced for the reason why I think you’re getting it pierced and you’re not good at that thing to begin with, no little piece of jewelry is going to save the day.”
God she’s brilliant - there’s way too many funny lines to include! Can’t wait to read her other books 😆

Not only was she married to Carl Bernstein (1/2 of Woodward/Bernstein who broke THE Watergate scandal) but she figured out the identity of Deep Throat and would casually name drop ‘Mark Felt’ at dinner parties. A true legend gone way too soon!!
‘I want him back’
‘What do you want him back for? You just said he was a schmuck’
‘I want him back so I can yell at him and tell him his a schmuck, anyway he’s my schmuck and I want him to stop seeing her and I want him to say that he never really loved her and he must have been crazy and I want him to die and her to die to’
‘I thought you said you want him back’
‘I do but I want him back dead’
