“I do not attach
any exaggerated importance to my poetical works. Life is
there to be lived rather than to be written about. My aim
is to search out the manifold experience that it offers,
wringing from each moment what of emotion it presents.
I look upon my writing as a graceful accomplishment
which does not absorb but rather adds pleasure to
existence. And as for posterity—damn posterity.”
― W. Somerset Maugham, Of Human Bondage

“You are cryptic,’ said Philip.
‘I am drunk,’ answered Cronshaw.”
― W. Somerset Maugham, Of Human Bondage

“I don't really care whether I live that long or not, It's just that when I die, I dont want to leave any enemies, and I figure the only way to do that is to outlive them all.”
― Harold Robbins, The Carpetbaggers

“But old families are like civilizations. One day they just wither and die.”
