Famous quotes containing the words lady and/or finger:

    Realism absorbs the ideal by adding a few small imperfections. Example: it paints a few specks of mud on the white gown of the Lady in the Garden.

    That only needs a finger touch from God
    To spring it like a deadfall and the fault
    In nature would wipe out all human fault.
