Sacha Guitry
You can pretend to be serious; you can't pretend to be witty.
Le peu que je sais, c'est à mon ignorance que je le dois. (The little I know I owe to my ignorance.)
An ideal wife is one who remains faithful to you but tries to be just as charming as if she weren't.
Our wisdom comes from our experience, and our experience comes from our foolishness.
A l'égard de celui qui vous prend votre femme, il n'est de pire vengeance que de la lui laisser. (When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her.)
