Famous quotes containing the words women, british and/or open:

    Old women snore violently. They are like bodies into which bizarre animals have crept at night; the animals are vicious, bawdy, noisy. How they snore! There is no shame to their snoring. Old women turn into old men.
    Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)

    Why is it we never get our bad medicine in small doses?
    Edmund H. North, British screenwriter, and Lewis Gilbert. First Sea Lord (Laurence Naismith)

    Hail ye small sweet courtesies of life, for smooth do ye make the road of it! like grace and beauty which beget inclinations to love at first sight; ‘tis ye who open this door and let the stranger in.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
