Peter Ustinov quotes
In an attempt to post more, and since I haven't written up the Baltimore trip yet, here, have some Peter Ustinov quotes, since today would have been his birthday.
I was irrevocably betrothed to laughter, the sound of which has always seemed to me to be the most civilized music in the world.
Once we are destined to live out our lives in the prison of our mind, our one duty is to furnish it well.
Beliefs are what divide people. Doubt unites them.
Courage is often lack of insight, whereas cowardice in many cases is based on good information.
Intelligent or not, we all make mistakes and perhaps the intelligent mistakes are the worst, because so much careful thought has gone into them.
To be gentle, tolerant, wise and, reasonable requires a goodly portion of toughness.
