Famous quotes containing the words smith and/or tower:
“Those who talk on the razor-edge of double-meanings pluck the rarest blooms from the precipice on either side.”
—Logan Pearsall Smith (1865–1946)
“Out in Hollywood, where the streets are paved with Goldwyn, the word “sophisticate” means, very simply, “obscene.” A sophisticated story is a dirty story. Some of that meaning was wafted eastward and got itself mixed up into the present definition. So that a “sophisticate” means: one who dwells in a tower made of a DuPont substitute for ivory and holds a glass of flat champagne in one hand and an album of dirty post cards in the other.”
—Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
