    How odd Of God To choose The Jews

    —  Dorothy Parker

    This is actually by William Norman Ewer (1885-1976) in Week-End Book (1924); This has sometimes been misattributed to Parker, who was herself of Jewish heritage, in the form:
    How odd of God
    To choose the Jews
    Similar sayings have also been attributed to Ogden Nash (1902-1971)
    'It wasn't odd;
    the Jews chose God
    Cecil Brown
    But not so odd
    As those who choose
    A Jewish God,
    But spurn the Jews
    Leo Rosten
    Not odd
    Of God
    The goyim
    Annoy 'im.
