Famous quotes containing the word henry:

    An Ambassador is an honest man sent to lie abroad for the good of his country.
    —Sir Henry Wotton (1568–1639)

    He did not live, he observed life from a window, and too often was inclined to content himself with no more than what his friends told him they saw when they looked out of a window.... In the end the point of Henry James is neither his artistry nor his seriousness, but his personality, and this was curious and charming and a trifle absurd.
    W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)
