More quotes by 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
Life is pain, highness. Anyone who tells you differently is selling something.
William Goldman
A good writer is not someone who knows how to write- but how to rewrite
William Goldman
Never argue with your wife about hostility when she's a certified Freudian.
William Goldman
I guess the most amazing thing about crying though is that when you're in it, you think it'll go on forever but it never really lasts half what you think. Not in terms of real time. In terms of real emotions, it's worse than you think, but not by the clock.
William Goldman
Miracle Max: Have fun stormin' da castle. Valerie: Think it'll work? Miracle Max: It would take a miracle.

William Goldman
Westley and I are joined by the bond of love and you cannot track that, not with a thousand bloodhounds, and you cannot break it, not with a thousand swords.
William Goldman
You can never trust what you read.
William Goldman

William Goldman
Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line.
William Goldman
There is no room in my body for anything but you.
William Goldman
But when a girl gives a boy a dead squid - that had to mean something.
William Goldman
The Queen's Pride was his ship, and he loved her. (That was the way his sentences always went: It is raining today and I love you. My cold is better and I love you. Say hello to Horse and I love you. Like that.)
William Goldman
You don't want to be rude but you have to be careful - there are a lot of strange people out there. (Goldman attributes this quote to Cliff Robertson.)
William Goldman
Flaws would not only bring death but, far worse, humiliation.
William Goldman
This is my favorite book in all the world, though I have never read it.
William Goldman
It’s an accepted fact that all writers are crazy, even the normal ones are weird.
William Goldman
I've been saying it so long to you, you just wouldn't listen. Every time you said 'Farm Boy do this' you thought I was answering 'As you wish' but that's only because you were hearing wrong. 'I love you' was what it was, but you never heard.
William Goldman
