More quotes by Quentin Crisp
I'm too old to make drawings.
Quentin Crisp
If I were God - and I never understand why I'm not - I should say, Shop around, I don't think you'll find a better bargain than here.
Quentin Crisp
The search for a life-style involves a journey to the interior. This is not altogether a pleasant experience, because you not only have to take stock of what you consider your assets but you also have to take a long look at what your friends call “the trouble with you.” Nevertheless, the journey is worth making.
Quentin Crisp
To say a thing is natural is to condone it, never to praise it.
Quentin Crisp
You must stop this interview now as I have come to end of my personality.
Quentin Crisp

Quentin Crisp
For flavor, instant sex will never supersede the stuff you have to peel and cook.
Quentin Crisp

Quentin Crisp
In Manhattan, when you're out of the front door, you're on, and you have to be ready to smile and speak to people.
Quentin Crisp
The Americans, of course, are quite dotty with hospitality.
Quentin Crisp
An autobiography is an obituary in serial form with the last installment missing.
Quentin Crisp
Never sweep. After four years the dirt gets no worse.
Quentin Crisp
I'm happy. I don't ever have to pay anything, and I don't ever have to wash the dishes, and I don't ever have to behave nicely.
Quentin Crisp
The consuming desire of most human beings is deliberately to place their entire life in the hands of some other person. For this purpose they frequently choose someone who doesn't even want the beastly thing.
Quentin Crisp
Life was a funny thing that happened to me on the way to the grave.
Quentin Crisp
I would never go to a place and live there because the weather was good or the scenery was beautiful or the architecture was wonderful. I would only go because the people are kind, and in America, everybody's your friend and happiness rains down from the sky.
Quentin Crisp
I was amazed to receive later a substantial sum for sitting in my room and talking about myself. If only I could get some of the back pay!
Quentin Crisp
I've always lived in the same way.
Quentin Crisp
