Famous quotes containing the words lady and/or jersey:

    “For I could tell you a story which is true;
    I know a lady with a terrible tongue,
    Blear eyes fallen from blue,
    All her perfections tarnished—and yet it is not long
    Since she was lovelier than any of you.”
    —John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    “To motorists bound to or from the Jersey shore, Perth Amboy consists of five traffic lights that sometimes tie up week-end traffic for miles. While cars creep along or come to a prolonged halt, drivers lean out to discuss with each other this red menace to freedom of the road.”
    —For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
