Peter Ustinov

"Comedy is simply a funny way of being serious."

"If the world should blow itself up, the last audible voice would be that of an expert saying it can't be done."

"I imagine hell like this: Italian punctuality, German humour and English wine."

"Books, I don't know what you see in them. I can understand a person reading them, but I can't for the life of me see why people have to write them."

"Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit."
