"Nothing annoys people so much as not..." - Quote by Oscar Wilde

“And if life be, as it surely is, a problem to me, I am no less a problem to life.”

“I forget what killed it. I think it was her proposing to sacrifice the whole world for me. That is always a dreadful moment. It fills one with the terror of eternity.”

“Everything in moderation, including moderation.”

“A bore is someone who takes away my solitude and doesn't give me companionship in return.”

“Never sit a table when you can stand at the bar.”

“Interviewing people, I don't miss that at all. I do miss kibitzing with the audience because after every show I would spend half an hour to 40 minutes talking to people.”

“Though laughter is allowable, a horse-laugh is abominable.”

“Let thy carriage be such as becomes a man grave settled and attentive to that which is spoken. Contradict not, at every turn, what others say.”

“Without an acquaintance with the rules of propriety, it is impossible for the character to be established”
