I always thought it was Woody Allen that said that. Don't tell me he stole it and took credit for it?

I've always attributed it to Mae West, but I googled a bit and found it also attributed to Beatrice Kaufman, Sophie Tucker, an a host of others. http://www.barrypopik.com/index.php/new_york_city/entry/ive_...

In any case I think they all beat out Woodie Allen. Ne was no more than a baby at the time.
