“The most common error made in matters of appearance is the belief that one should disdain the superficial and let the true beauty of one’s soul shine through. If there are places on your body where this is a possibility, you are not attractive – you are leaking.”

“So many of the loveliest things in England are melancholy.”
― Dodie Smith, I Capture the Castle

“It's much easier to write a solemn book than a funny book. It's harder to make people laugh than it is to make them cry. People are always on the verge of tears.”
― Fran Lebowitz

“I know all about the facts of life, and I don't think much of them.”
