Henry James: It was at once one of her most cherished complaints and most secret supports that people didn't understand her. Her imaginative life was the life in which she spent most of her time; and she would have been ready, had it been at all worth while, to contend that, since her outward occupation didn't kill it, it must be strong indeed.
P.G. Wodehouse: A curious smile, yours... It reminds me a little of the Mona Lisa's. It has the same underlying note of the sardonic and the sinister. It virtually amounts to a leer. Somehow it seems to convey the suggestion that you know all. But I think it would be better if, for the present, you endeavoured not to smile at invalids or nervous persons.
Jack Handy: It's true that every time you hear a bell, an angel gets its wings. But what they don't tell you is that every time you hear a mouse trap snap, an angel gets set on fire.
