Autoren William Somerset, Maugham Aufrichtigkeit ist wahrscheinlich die verwegenste Form der Tapferkeit. Bei einem Festmahl sollte man mit Verstand essen, aber nicht zu gut, und sich aber nicht mit zuviel Verstand unterhalten. Die meisten Menschen geben ihre Laster erst dann auf, wenn sie ihnen Beschwerden bereiten. Die Natur ist weise: Der Mensch hat zwei Ohren und nur eine Zunge. Er sollte doppelt so viel hören wie reden. Die Zeit ist ein guter Arzt, aber ein schlechter Kosmetiker. Es gibt drei goldene Regeln, um eine Novelle zu schreiben - leider sind sie unbekannt. Gelegentliche Ausschweifungen wirken anregend. Sie verhindern, dass Mäßigkeit zur Gewohnheit abstumpft. Jede Minute, die du missmutig verbringst, sind 60 verlorene Sekunden. Nach den Vorstellungen einer amerikanischen Frau ist der ideale Ehemann ein Butler mit dem Einkommen eines Generaldirektors. Von einer Frau kann man alles erfahren, wenn man keine Fragen stellt. Wenn man genug Erfahrung gesammelt hat, ist man zu alt, um sie auszunutzen. Zukunft ist etwas, das die Menschen erst lieben, wenn es Vergangenheit geworden ist.

William Somerset Maugham ( Some quotations: To the lover waiting for his love, no sound is sadder than the tardy striking of the hours. It is but seldom that a man loves one and for all; it may only show that his sexual instincts are not very strong. Human sorrow is like a child born in the night who sees the sun rise and thinks that yesterday never existed. The writer must be playful and serious at the same time. When you are in love what use it is to you if all you get in return is kindness, friendship, affection ? It is Dead Sea fruit that sticks in your throat. People will sometimes forgive you the good you have done them, but seldom the harm they have done you. Death is a very dull, dreary affair, and my advice to you is to have nothing whatsoever to do with it. People ask for criticism, but they only want praise. The unfortunate thing about this world is that the good habits are much easier to give up than the bad ones. Art for art's sake makes no more sense than gin for gin's sake. There are two good things in life - freedom of thought and freedom of action.

document.write(''); Home Collections Modern British print ... Modern Irish Collections W. Somerset Maugham (1874-1965) W(illiam) Somerset Maugham, playwright, novelist and short story writer was born of British parents in Paris in 1874. Brought up originally in France, Maugham lost his mother at the age of eight. Two years later his father died of cancer and Maugham the orphan was moved to Kent, where he boarded at King's School, Canterbury. His holidays were spent with an uncle in Whitstable. About this time Maugham developed the stammer which made it difficult for him to make relationships and contributed to his shy and introverted manner. Maugham studied philosophy and literature at Heidelberg University and then in London he qualified as a surgeon at St. Thomas's Hospital. Of Human Bondage (1915) is an autobiographical novel describing his unhappiness and anxiety in early life and recounting his experiences as a medical student. Maugham served in the British Intelligence Service in World Wars I and II. In 1914 he was part of a Red Cross unit in France, later acting as a secret agent in Geneva. In Petrograd he was involved in trying to prevent the outbreak of the Russian Revolution. These experiences are related in Ashenden, or the British Agent

W. SOMERSET MAUGHAM Author / Playwright Name at birth: William Somerset Maugham Maugham trained to be a doctor and his experiences as an intern in the London slums led him to write Liza of Lambeth (1897). The novel was a success and Maugham quickly traded the surgeon's knife for the writer's pen. He became one of the most successful writers of the early 20th century; in 1908 he had four plays running simultaneously in London. His semi-autobiographical novel Of Human Bondage was published in 1915 and remains his most famous book. In later years Maugham became known as a master of the short story. He travelled extensively and based many of his tales in exotic locales, particularly the South Seas. Maugham appears with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in our loop on Doctors Who Write ...

But it may be that the way of life that he has chosen for himself and the peculiar strength and sweetness of his character may have an ever-growing influence over his fellow men so that, long after his death perhaps, it may be realized that there lived in this age a very remarkable creature."

In the same paragraph as the above quote Maugham writes: "I have invented nothing. To save embarrassment to people still living I have given to the persons who play a part in this story names of my own contriving, and I have in other ways taken pains to make sure that no one should recognize them."

W. SOMERSET MAUGHAM: A Biography Profession Author Place of Birth Paris Born Place of Death Nice Died Born in Paris, of Irish ancestry, Somerset Maugham was to lead a fascinating life and would become famous for his mastery of short evocative stories that were often set in the more obscure and remote areas of the British Empire. Suffering from a bad stammer, he received a classic public school education at King's school in Canterbury, Kent. Rather more unconventionally he studied at Heidelburg university where he read philosophy and literature. He then studied in London, eventually qualifying as a surgeon at St Thomas's hospital. He conducted his year's medical practice in the slums of the East End. It was here that he found material for his first, rather lurid, novel Liza of Lambeth in 1897 and much of the material for his critically acclaimed autobiographical novel Of Human Bondage although this wasn't to be published until 1915. He moved to Paris where he would strike up a successful working relationship with Laurence Housman and write a number of plays that would be run in London from 1908. At the outbreak of The Great War, Maugham, at age 40 and 5'6" was both too old and too short to enlist in the military so he joined a British Red Cross ambulance unit attached to the French Army, becoming like his comtemporaries, one of many Literary Ambulance Drivers . One of his co-drivers was Desmond MacCarthy , a writer in his own right who later became literary critic for The London Sunday Times. Before long Maugham was recruited for a far more interesting assignment as secret agent in Geneva and then Petrograd. In Russia, he was given the rather mammoth job of attempting to prevent the Russian Revolution from starting. His novel
