W. Somerset Maugham
  • Anyone can tell the truth, but only very few of us can make epigrams.

  • In Hollywood, the women are all peaches. It makes one long for an apple occasionally.

  • It is not wealth one asks for, but just enough to preserve one's dignity, to work unhampered, to be generous, frank and independent.

  • At a dinner party one should eat wisely but not too well, and talk well but not too wisely.
