I have been collecting lines from my reading for nigh on 40 years, and they now reside on my Mac.
I'll try to practise restraint and not flood this section of the board; however, for starters ...
Fraser, John (2004/2005). Close Up: An actor telling tales. London: Oberon. p. 61
(I read that book just last week. It's a most amusing autobiography, and doesn't fall prey to that common failing of the genre - hagiography.)

And another Fraser gem:

And just one more, then I promise to desist (with Fraserisms, at least).
[describing an occasion with Vanessa Redgrave ("the Big V") and Franco Nero (her new lover)]: [Earlier, JF had referred to the vanity of well-hung Italian men.]
