Famous quotes containing the words shanghai and/or baby:

    It took more than one man to change my name to Shanghai Lily.
    Jules Furthman (1888–1960)

    When the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies. And now when every new baby is born its first laugh becomes a fairy. So there ought to be one fairy for every boy or girl.
    —J.M. (James Matthew)
