Let's talk about love, that wonderful thing,
Let's blend the scent of Venice with Paris in Spring,
Let's gaze at that moon and try to believe
We're Venus and Adonis, or Adam and Eve,
Let's throw away anxiety, let's quite forget propriety,
Respectable society, the rector and his piety,
And contemplate l'amour in all its infinite variety,
My dear, let's talk about love.
Pretend you're Chopin and I'll be George Sand,
We're on the Grand Canal and, oh baby, it's grand!
Let's mention Walkures and helmeted knights,
I'm beautiful Brünnhilde, you're Siegfried in tights,
Let's curse the asininity of tribal consanguinity,
Let's praise the masculinity of Dietrich's new affinity,
Let's picture Cleopatra saying "Scram" to her virginity,
My dear, let's talk about love.
The weather's so warm and you are so cute,
Let's dream about Tahiti and tropical fruit,
I've always said men were simply deevine,
(Did you know Peggy Joyce was once a pupil of mine?)
Let's gather miscellania on Oberon's Titania,
Or ladies even branier who've moved to Pennsylvania,
(Bucks County, so I hear, is just a nest of nymphomania)
My dear, let's talk about love.
-Cole Porter, "Let's Talk About Love"
The conduct and manners of women, in fact, evidently prove that their minds are not in a healthy state; for, like the flowers which are planted in too rich a soil, strength and usefulness are sacrificed to beauty; and the flaunting leaves, after having pleased a fastidious eye, fade, disregarded on the stalk, long before the season when they ought to have arrived at maturity.
—Mary Wollstonecraft
I’m all in favor of keeping dangerous weapons out of the hands of fools. Let’s start with typewriters.
