Maurice Baring quotes:

In Mozart and Salieri we see the contrast between the genius which does what it must and the talent which does what it can.

Memory is the greatest of artists, and effaces from your mind what is unnecessary.

There is a vast difference between games and play. Play is played for fun, but games are deadly serious and you do not play them to enjoy yourself.

In Mozart and Salieri we see the contrast between the genius which does what it must and the talent which does what it can."

Avoid contradicting in general, especially people you love.

Whoever one is, and wherever one is, one is always in the wrong if one is rude.

A good play is a play which when acted upon the boards make an audience interested and pleased. A play that fails in this is a bad play.

I wish I was dead,And lay deep in the grave.I've a pain in my head,I wish I was dead.In a coffin of lead-With the Wise and the Brave-I wish I was dead,And lay deep in the grave.

If you would know what the Lord God thinks of money, you have only to look at those to whom he gives it.
