Famous quotes containing the word ladies:
“Almost yesterday, those gentle ladies stole

rites of the first sea of the first salt
running from a faucet.”

“He hangs in the hall by his black cravat,
The ladies faint, and the children holler:
Only my Daddy could look like that,
And I love my Daddy like he loves his Dollar.”
