Don't hold your parents up to contempt. After all, you are their son, and it is just possible that you may take after them.
From Evelyn Waugh
When we argue for our limitations, we get to keep them.
I put the words down and push them a bit.
In the dying world I come from, quotation is a national vice.
We cherish our friends not for their ability to amuse us, but for ours to amuse them.
Not everyone grows to be old, but everyone has been younger than he is now.
I think to be oversensitive about cliches is like being oversensitive about table manners.
Professional reviewers read so many bad books in the course of duty that they get an unhealthy craving for arresting phrases.
We class schools into four grades: leading school, first-rate school, good school and school.
Your actions, and your action alone, determines your worth.
