    Noel Coward Quotation


    "Having to read a footnote resembles having to go downstairs to answer the door while in the midst of making love."

    (speaking of Oscar Wilde) "It is extraordinary indeed that such a posing, artificial old queen should have written one of the greatest comedies in the English language!"

    Noel Coward (to O'Toole): "If you'd been any prettier, it would have been Florence of Arabia."

    "Comedies of manners swiftly become obsolete when there are no longer any manners" "Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid-day sun."

    "Everybody worships me, it's nauseating."

    "Extraordinary how potent cheap music is"

    "Don't put your daughter on the stage, Mrs. Worthington."

    "I never care who scored the goal, or which side won the silver cup- I never learned to bat or bowl- But I heard the curtain going up."

    "Keir Dullea, Gone tommorrow."(when ask what he thought about his "Bunny Lake co-star)

    "Wit is like caviar - it should be served in small portions and not spread about like marmalade."

    "Certain women should be struck regularly, like gongs."

    My importance to the world is relatively small. On the other hand, my importance to myself is tremendous. I am all I have to work with, to play with, to suffer and to enjoy. It is not the eyes of others that I am wary of, but of my own. I do not intend to let myself down more than I can possibly help, and I find that the fewer illusions I have about myself or the world around me, the better company I am for myself.

    (In a telegram to Gertrude Lawrence upon her marriage to Richard Aldrich): "Dear Mrs. A Hooray!HoorayYou finally are de-flowered- I love you now and every day- Sincerely, Noel Coward."

    Last Words: "Good night my darlings. I'll see you in the morning."

    "I don't much care for Hollywood, I'd rather have a nice cup of cocoa."

    "My life really has been one long extravaganza."

    "The day when I shall begin to worry is when the critics declare: 'This is Noël Coward's greatest play.' But I know they bloody well won't."

    "I can accept anything in the theatre provided it amuses me or moves me. But if it does neither,I want to go home."



    Movie Title: The Italian Job (1969) as Mr Bridger / Mr. Bridger:



    Keats : They say he's going to do a job in Italy.
    Mr Bridger : Well I hope he likes spaghetti. They serve it four times a day in the Italian prisons...


    Mr. Bridger : We've come here to pay our respects to Great Aunt Nellie. She brought us up properly and taught us loyalty. Now I want you to remember that during these next few days. I also want you to remember that if you don't come back with the goods, Nellie here will turn in her grave, and, likely as not, jump right out of it and kick your teeth in.


    'Camp' Freddie : But Mr. Bridger, what if the Professor's not bent?
    Mr Bridger : Camp Freddie, everyone in the *world* is bent!


    Mr Bridger : You must learn, Keats, there are more things to life than breaking and entering.

    Movie Title: The Scoundrel (1935) as Anthony Mallare:



    Anthony Mallare : I'm never nice.
