Every Woman Should Have a Blowtorch

"Every woman should have a blowtorch," Julia Child once commented as she commenced to caramelize the top of a creme brulee.  And every woman could use a dish of empowering bons mots every so often as well.  Voila!  Here you are-- the perfect little book of wit, wisecracks, and famous quotes from outspoken free spirits that shine their piercing light on men, love, marriage, life, work, and more!  "Of all the beasts of land or sea, the wildest is woman." (Menander) "I don't have time every day to put on makeup.  I need that time to clean my rifle."  (Henriette Mandel)  "Besides Shakespeare and me, who do you think there is?"  (Gertrude Stein)
