Noel Coward
Everybody worships me, it's nauseating.
Noel Coward
The theatre should be treated with respect. The theatre is a wonderful place, a house of strange enchantment, a temple of illusion. What it most emphatically is not and never will be is a scruffy, ill-lit, fumed-oak drill hall serving as a temporary soap box for political propaganda.

Noel Coward
To take a gloomy view of life is not part of my philosophy to laugh at the idiocies of my fellow creatures is. However, at this particular moment I cannot find so much to laugh at as I would like.
Noel Coward
Acting is not a state of being ... but a state of appearing to be.
Noel Coward
If you must have motivation, think of your paycheck on Friday.
Noel Coward
We have no reliable guarantee that the afterlife will be any less exasperating than this one, have we?
Noel Coward
There are bad times just around the corner, There are dark clouds travelling through the sky, And it's no good whining, About a silver lining, For we know from experience they won't roll by...
Noel Coward
Dear 338171 (May I call you 338?)
Noel Coward
Everybody was up to something, especially, of course, those who were up to nothing.
Noel Coward
