Famous quotes containing the words cultured and/or pearl:
“Being cultured is the least expensive form of respectability.”

“Then must you speak
Of one that loved not wisely but too well;
Of one not easily jealous, but being wrought,
Perplexed in the extreme; of one whose hand,
Like the base Judean threw a pearl away
Richer than all his tribe.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
