Quotes by Julie Burchill (?)

“Tears are sometimes an inappropriate response to death. When a life
has been lived completely honestly, completely successfully, or just
completely, the correct response to death's perfect punctuation mark
is a smile”
― Julie Burchill

“Youth, health, wealth and beauty are meant to be fuel, to be burned in pursuit of pleasure, and not fruit to be pickled in anticipation of some future famine. (Hang on a minute and I'll get my sequins out and give you a quick rendition of 'My Way')”
― Julie Burchill, The Guardian Columns 1998-2000

“We sat there smiling at each other, shimmied to a standstill, thinking about all the boys that had wanted us that day, and how none of them had got us, not for a minute; how we'd let them pay for drinks and candyfloss and then run away laughing, their cries of 'Slags!' and 'Bitches' ringing in our ears like respect rather than derision.”
― Julie Burchill, Sugar Rush
