More quotes by Violet Trefusis

Across my life only one word will be written: "waste" - waste of love, waste of talent, waste of enterprise.

You are my lover and I am your mistress and kingdoms and empires and governments have tottered and succumbed before now to that mighty combination.

In each human being there is an emergency exit: that is, the cult of self under a multitude of manifestations, which means that when an obsession becomes too violent, you can escape, vanish with a snicker.
