Famous quotes containing the word somerset:
“Hypocrisy is the most difficult and nerve-racking vice that any man can pursue; it needs an unceasing vigilance and a rare detachment of spirit. It cannot, like adultery or gluttony, be practised at spare moments; it is a whole-time job.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1966)
“Habits in writing as in life are only useful if they are broken as soon as they cease to be advantageous.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)
“I can imagine no more comfortable frame of mind for the conduct of life than a humorous resignation.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1966)
