Noel Coward

Noel Coward
Passion in a dromedary doesn't go so deep a camel when it's mating never sobs itself to sleep.
Noel Coward
I want a horse and plough, Chickens too, Just one cow, With a wistful moo.
Noel Coward
Grab it while you can — grab every scrap of happiness while you can
Noel Coward
Dear 338171 (May I call you 338?)
Noel Coward
Extraordinary how potent cheap music is.
Noel Coward
Star quality: I don't know what it is, but I've got it.
