More quotes by Noel Coward

Noel Coward
If you must have motivation, think of your paycheck on Friday.
Noel Coward

Noel Coward
Everybody was up to something, especially, of course, those who were up to nothing.
Noel Coward
There isn't a particle of you that I don't know, remember, and want.
Noel Coward
It's never too early for a cocktail.
Noel Coward
We have no reliable guarantee that the afterlife will be any less exasperating than this one, have we?
Noel Coward
I love criticism just so long as it's unqualified praise.
Noel Coward
Everybody worships me, it's nauseating.
Noel Coward
