About This Quote

When a person says he or she could murder for a mangosteen, it is likely that the person is not going out and actually doing something about it. The phrase "murder for a mangosteen" was first used by the writer, journalist and cartoonist Charles Aznavour. However, it has become a common saying in English since then. In other words, you shouldn't take what someone says as gospel.
