Dame Edith Sitwell
QuotationsEccentricity is not, as dull people would have us believe, a form of madness. It is often a kind of innocent pride, and the man of genius and the aristocrat are frequently regarded as eccentrics because genius and aristocrats are entirely unafraid of and uninfluenced by the opinions and vagaries of the crowd.
I have often wished I had time to cultivate modesty. But I am too busy thinking about myself.
