Recently, while researching a post about dating older/younger men, I came across a quote from Zsa Zsa Gabor so hilarious that I decided to devote an entire post to her. A thing person we love!

I will save the original quote, about the best age to marry, for tomorrow because it really deserves its own place of honor! Meantime, I want to share a little bit of what makes the woman so fantastic.

[DISCLAIMER FOR MALE READERS: This is not an endorsement of Zsa Zsa's opinions or lifestyle. It's her outrageousness that makes her so appealing. Think of how you love Howard Stern's open embrace of porn stars or Chris Rock's pronouncements on the importance of blow jobs. With that in mind, you'll see why we love Zsa Zsa's shocking pearls of wisdom]

As far as I can tell, this woman was scheming for fame pretty much since birth. Born in Budapest and educated in Swiss boarding school, she was disqualified for competing in Miss Hungary because she was underage. She’s like the modern day hybrid of Paris Hilton meets Katy Perry. Oozing with privileged boredom but also clamoring for the spotlight. On a trip to Vienna at age 19, she was spotted by some famous singer who decided to put her directly on stage in an “operetta.” During the show, she hooked up with the composer. I’m telling you, she must have been smoking hot.

From there, her trail of destruction is long and paved with rich husbands. Married 9 times, NINE TIMES, and countless lovers in between, the woman is a legendary maneater and with a temper to boot. In 1989, she famously slapped a cop who pulled her over for a traffic violation (”Do you have any idea who you are speaking to, dahling?”). I think we also have Zsa Zsa to thank for the inspiration behind the invention of the prenuptial agreement.

And without further ado, here are some of her best and most outrageous remarks. I hope this gives you a great laugh over lunch. And hey, if you’re spending Valentine’s Day solo, this is bound to cheer you up.

“How many husbands have I had? You mean apart from my own?”

“We were both in love with him. I fell out of love with him, but he didn’t.“

“To a smart girl men are no problem – they’re the answer.“

“I want a man who’s kind and understanding. Is that too much to ask of a millionaire?“

“I am a marvelous housekeeper. Every time I leave a man I keep his house.“

“Husbands are like fires – they go out when unattended.“

“A man in love is incomplete until he has married. Then he’s finished.“

“You never really know a man until you have divorced him.“
