Quotes7

  • Cecil: My dear Tuppy, in this world there are only two tragedies. One is not getting what one wants, the other is getting it. The last is very much the worst. The last is a real tragedy.
  • Dumby: He's proposing to her. It will be his third time up the aisle.
  • Cecil: Hope trumps experience, Dumby. It's God's joke on the human race.
  • Dumby: Women inspire us to great things.
  • Cecil: Then somehow prevent us from doing any of them.
  • Cecil: Men don't trust women. Women don't trust women. No one trusts women. It's what binds the Catholic and the Hindu.
  • Cecil: Devilish women are a bother, and good ones are a bore.
  • Cecil: Men advance, women resist. We retreat and they block our escape. We can't win.
  • Lord Darlington: The sexes will never understand each other.
  • Cecil: Only because they take such pains to deceive each other.
  • Lady Plymdale: Opera makes me feel so romantic.
  • Cecil: Anything too stupid to be said is sung.
