Quentin Crisp
I shall probably make this the last week of daily quotes, for a while anyway. I'm beginning to repeat writers and run out of bon mots I've noted in my general reading; I have sneaked in one or two oft-repeated 'quotable quotes' over the weeks but it would be really lame if I just ended up taking items out of a Big Book of Quotes, so I've decided to knock it on the head.

Quentin Crisp
