 No great artist ever sees things as they really are. If he did he would cease to be an artist.

 No man dies for what he knows to be true. Men die for what they want to be true, for what some terror in their hearts tells them is not true.

 No man is rich enough to buy back his past.

 No object is so beautiful that, under certain conditions, it will not look ugly.

 No publisher should ever express an opinion on the value of what he publishes. That is a matter entirely for the literary critic to decide. I can quite understand how any ordinary critic would be strongly prejudiced against a work that was accompanied by a premature and unnecessary panegyric from the publisher. A publisher is simply a useful middle-man. It is not for him to anticipate the verdict of criticism.

 No woman should ever be quite accurate about her age. It looks so calculating.

 No work of art ever puts forward views. Views belong to people who are not artists.

 No, I am not at all cynical, I have merely got experience, which, however, is very much the same thing.

 Nobody of any real culture, for instance, ever talks nowadays about the beauty of sunset. Sunsets are quite old fashioned. To admire them is a distinct sign of provincialism of temperament. Upon the other hand they go on.

 Nothing can cure the soul but the senses, just as nothing can cure the senses but the soul.

 Nothing is good in moderation. You cannot know good in anything until you have torn the heart out of it by excess.

 Nothing is impossible in Russia but reform.

 Nothing is so aggravating as calmness.

 Nothing is so aggravating than calmness.

 Nothing is so dangerous as being too modern; one is apt to grow old-fashioned quite suddenly
