No good deed goes unpunished [1] page cites four different possible authors... and she's not one of them. In doubt, I'll just remove it. --2.229.19.15 12:39, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

The person that said 'no good deed goes unpunished' is Clare Boothe Luce. She wrote a play titled 'The Women'. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pawyilee (talk • contribs) 14:58, 18 November 2013‎ (UTC)

• Courage is the ladder from which all other virtues mount from.
• I'm in my anecdotage.
• They say women talk too much. If you have worked in Congress you know that the filibuster was invented by men.
• To be a liberated woman is to renounce the desire of being a sex object or a baby girl. It is to acknowledge that the Cinderella–Prince Charming Story is a child's fairy tale.
• It is ridiculous to think you can spend your entire life with just one person. Three is about the right number. Yes, I imagine three husbands would do it.
