You can forgive a young cunt anything. A young cunt doesn't have to have brains. They're better without brains. But an old cunt, even if she's brilliant, even if she's the most charming woman in the world, nothing makes any difference. A young cunt is an investment; an old cunt is a dead loss. All they can do for you is buy you things. But that doesn't put meat on their arms or juice between their legs. . Henry Miller
About This Quote

This quote is an interesting twist on the sentiment that money does not bring happiness. It's not true that young people can do no wrong; it's just that their mistakes do not carry the same weight as those of older people. And, as this quote points out, money can't buy happiness. It's true of course that you can't buy love but you can certainly buy many things, including material possessions. But so what? A new car may be nice, but it won't make your spouse want to stay with you.
