Famous quotes containing the words lady and/or butler:

    I spoke at a woman’s club in Philadelphia yesterday and a young lady said to me afterwards, “Well, that sounds very nice, but don’t you think it is better to be the power behind the throne?” I answered that I had not had much experience with thrones, but a woman who has been on a throne, and who is now behind it, seems to prefer to be on the throne.
    Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)

    A lady with soft eyes like funeral tapers,
    And face that seemed wrought out of moonlit vapours,
    And a sad mouth, that fear made tremulous
    As any ruddy moth, looked down on us;
    And she with a wave-rusted chain was tied
    To two old eagles, full of ancient pride....
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
