Famous quotes containing the word girl:

    When I’m not near the girl I love, I love the girl I’m near.
    E.Y. Harburg (1898–1981)

    Pardon me, you are not engaged to any one. When you do become engaged to some one, I, or your father, should his health permit him, will inform you of the fact. An engagement should come on a young girl as a surprise, pleasant or unpleasant, as the case may be. It is hardly a matter that she could be allowed to arrange for herself.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    Daniel: I’m glad to know you.
    Jerry: How can you be glad to know me? I know how I’d feel if I were sitting with a girl and her husband walked in.
    Lucy: I’ll bet you do.
    Vina Delmar, U.S. novelist, playwright. Daniel (Ralph Bellamy)
