Noël Coward
“I have a memory like an elephant. In fact, elephants often consult me. ”
Noel Coward

Noël Coward
“Having to read footnotes resembles having to go downstairs to answer the door while in the midst of making love.”
Noel Coward

Henry Hazlitt
“A man with a scant vocabulary will almost certainly be a weak thinker. The richer and more copious one's vocabulary and the greater one's awareness of fine distinctions and subtle nuances of meaning, the more fertile and precise is likely to be one's thinking. Knowledge of things and knowledge of the words for them grow together. If you do not know the words, you can hardly know the thing.”
Henry Hazlitt, Thinking as a Science

Noël Coward
“AMANDA: I think very few people are completely normal really, deep down in their private lives.”
Noel Coward, Private Lives an Intimate Comedy in Three Acts

Henry Hazlitt
“The art of economics consists in looking not merely at the immediate but at the longer effects of any act or policy; it consists in tracing the consequences of that policy not merely for one group but for all groups.”
Henry Hazlitt
