I don't sit down and have meals too often, unless I go out for dinner.

I can't sit through dinner with somebody I don't like.

I don't have big ideas. I sometimes have small ideas, which seem to work out.

Be good, sweet maid, and let who will be clever.

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

I don't do evening business dinners, and I don't do weekends.

If you're not very clever you should be conciliatory.

If you want to succeed in the world, you don't have to be much cleverer than other people. You just have to be one day earlier.
