William Goldman

William Goldman
The Countess was considerably younger than her husband. All of her clothes came from Paris (this was after Paris) and she had superb taste. (This was after taste too, but only just. And since it was such a new thing, and since the Countess was the only lady in all Florin to posses it, is it any wonder she was the leading hostess in the land?)
William Goldman
One of the easiest things in the world is not to write... If it were easy, everyone would do it.
William Goldman

William Goldman
Existence was really very simple when you did what you were told.
William Goldman
Anything there is that I can do for you, I will do for you anything there is that I cannot do, I will learn to do.
William Goldman
Flaws would not only bring death but, far worse, humiliation.
William Goldman
I suppose I was dying again, so I asked the Lord of Permanent Affection for the strength to live the day. Clearly, the answer came in the affirmative. I didn't know there was such a Fellow, Buttercup said. Neither did I, in truth, but if He didn't exist, I didn't much want to either.
William Goldman
You have a dizzying intellect.
William Goldman
Enough about my beauty, Buttercup said. Everybody always talks about how beautiful I am. I've got a mind, Westley. Talk about that.
William Goldman
Never argue with your wife about hostility when she's a certified Freudian.
William Goldman
I know something you do not know. I am not left-handed either.
William Goldman
