And now, I am dying beyond my means. (Said while sipping champagne on his deathbed.)

I believe it is customary in good society to take some slight refreshment at five o'clock.

However, it is always nice to be expected, and not to arrive.

Most people die of a sort of creeping common sense, and discover when it is too late that the only things one never regrets are one's mistakes.

The intellect is not a serious thing, and never has been. It is an instrument on which one plays, that is all.

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

Intuition is a strange instinct that tells a woman she is right, whether she is or not.
