. . to cook well and with imagination you have to be in a cheerful and contented frame of mind, and thus inclined to be generous.

~ Alice Thomas Ellis

When a baronet is discovered behind a bush in the park with a guardsman, or a minister of the crown is caught creeping out of a country with his socks stuffed full of bank notes and a woman not his wife ten paces behind, or a public person is revealed disporting himself with a couple of tarts and a teddy bear in West Paddington, they complain to the press that the outcry is hypocritical and that everyone would like to do what they were doing if only they had the chance. They regard the law as an instrument of envy, like nationalization and death duties.

Death is the last enemy: once we've got past that I think everything will be all right.
