“Love is more pleasant than marriage for the same reason that novels are more amusing than history”
Chamfort
“If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship rather than love.”
Michel de Montaigne
“It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you. I love you not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me. I love you for the part of me that you bring out.”
Roy Croft
“Conversation should be pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, free without indecency, learned without conceitedness, novel without falsehood”
William Shakespeare
“Women want love to be a novel, men a short story.”
Daphne Du Maurier
“Restoration I did because I really loved e novel and I like Michael Hoffman, who directed it, but it wasn't a really challenging part for me. I'm not critical of the film: I just don't think I gave a very interesting performance.”
David Thewlis
