Famous quotes containing the words color and/or cards:

    But whenever the roof came white
    The head in the dark below
    Was a shade less the color of night,
    A shade more the color of snow.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Out in Hollywood, where the streets are paved with Goldwyn, the word “sophisticate” means, very simply, “obscene.” A sophisticated story is a dirty story. Some of that meaning was wafted eastward and got itself mixed up into the present definition. So that a “sophisticate” means: one who dwells in a tower made of a DuPont substitute for ivory and holds a glass of flat champagne in one hand and an album of dirty post cards in the other.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
