Epstein on jokes about Jewish wives:

"Jewish wives have been the target of enough jokes to warrant establishing a special branch of the Anti-Defamation League. What does a Jewish wife make for dinner? Answer: Reservations. 'A thief stole my wife's purse with all her credit cards,' Rodney Dangerfield (born Jacob Rodney Cohen) used to remark, 'but I'm not going after him. He's spending less than she does.' . . .

"Ira Silverberg, walking up the stairs of a nearby bordello, discovers his father coming down the stairs, and, in dismay, asks him what he is doing there. 'For three dollars,' his father says, 'why should I bother your mother?'"
