I Won't Telephone Him


“I won't telephone him.
 I'll never telephone him again as long as I live. 
He'll rot in hell before I'll call him up. 
You don't have to give me strength, God; I have it myself.
 If he wanted me, he could get me. He knows where I am.
 He knows I'm waiting here. 
He's so sure of me, so sure. 
I wonder why they hate you, as soon as they are sure of you.” 

~ Dorothy Parker, The Portable Dorothy Parker
