Famous quotes containing the words beaumont and/or chase:
“Lay a garland on my hearse,
Of the dismal yew;
Maidens, willow branches bear;
Say I died true.”
—Francis Beaumont (1584-1616)
“The beaux and the babies, the servant troubles, and the social aspirations of the other girls seemed to me superficial. My work did not. I was professional. I could earn my own money, or I could be fired if I were inefficient. It was something to get your teeth into. It was living.”
—Edna Woolman Chase (1877–1957)
