Kenneth Williams: [on Maggie Smith] When we went to Fortnum & Mason, where she was after a particular type of bra, a very grand assistant in Fortnums, which was very heavily carpeted, beautiful very soft pile; you hardly heard as you entered... this woman said, "yes, I have this particular bra, m'am" and she said it was seven guineas, and Maggie said, "Seven guineas for a bra! Cheaper to have your tits off!", and the place was in uproar! They had obviously never heard anyone being quite so forthright in that kind of establishment.
