General Lee

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or lee:

“Some people are under the impression that all that is required to make a good fisherman is the ability to tell lies easily and without blushing; but this is a mistake. Mere bald fabrication is useless; the veriest tyro can manage that. It is in the circumstantial detail, the embellishing touches of probability, the general air of scrupulous—almost of pedantic—veracity, that the experienced angler is seen.”
—Jerome K. Jerome (1859–1927)

“I don’t know how it is up North, of course, but down South there are times when Southern women feel a need for privacy.”
—John Lee Mahin (1902–1984)
