"Vice is its own reward. It is virtue which, if it is to be marketed with consumer appeal, must carry Green Shield stamps."

This book is an invitation to a marvelous party where the talk scintillates, the anecdotes unfailingly amuse, the glamorous guests stay late, and the genial host is a true wit who dispenses aphoristic one-liners with the aplomb of a latter-day Oscar Wilde. Of himself, Quentin Crisp writes: "If I have any talent at all, it is not for doing but for being." It is simple: be yourself and let the debris fall where it will.
