Noel Coward
Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid-day sun.
Noel Coward
Your motivation is your pay packet on Friday. Now get on with it.
Noel Coward
How about slipping out of those wet things and into a dry Martini?
Noel Coward

Noel Coward

Noel Coward

Noel Coward
I'll go and see anything so long as it amuses me, or moves me. If it doesn't do either I want to go home.
Noel Coward
Passion in a dromedary doesn't go so deep a camel when it's mating never sobs itself to sleep.
Noel Coward
Fifty-four years of love and tenderness and crossness and devotion and unswerving loyalty. Without her I could have achieved a quarter of what I have achieved, not only in terms of success and career, but in terms of personal happiness.
Noel Coward
He must have been an incredibly good shot.
Noel Coward
People are wrong when they say opera is not what it used to be. It is what it used to be. That is what's wrong with it.
Noel Coward
Acting is not a state of being ... but a state of appearing to be.
Noel Coward
There isn't a particle of you that I don't know, remember, and want.
Noel Coward
