Noel Coward
He must have been an incredibly good shot.
Noel Coward

Noel Coward
There isn't a particle of you that I don't know, remember, and want.
Noel Coward

Noel Coward
I don't think pornography is harmful, but it is terribly, terribly boring.
Noel Coward
How foolish to think that one can ever slam the door in the face of age. Much wiser to be polite and gracious and ask him to lunch in advance.
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
The pleasures that once were heaven look silly at sixty-seven.
Noel Coward
I'm an enormously talented man, and there's no use pretending that I'm not.
Noel Coward
Grab it while you can — grab every scrap of happiness while you can
