W. Somerset Maugham
  • Every production of an artist should be the expression of an adventure of his soul.

  • Beauty is an ecstasy it is as simple as hunger. There is really nothing to be said about it. It is like the perfume of a rose: you can smell it and that is all.

  • It is well known that Beauty does not look with a good grace on the timid advances of Humour.

  • It's a funny thing about life if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it.

  • Only a mediocre person is always at his best.
