Draw the mirror toward you;
Time who makes the years to whirl
Adorned as he adored you.

Ogden Nash

But I keep wondering if this time we couldn't settle our differences before a war instead of after.

Ogden Nash

If you try to give them a bath.
They bury bones in hideaways,
And half the time they run sideaways.

Ogden Nash

Time is timelessness for you;
Calendars for the human;
What's a year, or thirty, to
Loveliness made woman?

Ogden Nash

Perhaps indeed the possession of wealth is constantly distressing,
But I should be quite willing to assume every curse of wealth if I could at the same time assume every blessing.
The only incurable troubles of the rich are the troubles that money can't cure,
Which is a kind of trouble that is even more troublesome if you are poor.
Certainly there are lots of things in life that money won't buy, but it's very funny —
Have you ever tried to buy them without money?
