Colour Breeding

Famous quotes containing the words colour and/or breeding:

“I allow a Beauty to be as much to be commended for the Elegance of her Dress, as a Wit for that of his Language; yet if she has stolen the Colour of her Ribbands from another, or had Advice about her Trimmings, I shall not allow her the Praise of Dress, any more than I would call a Plagiary an Author.”
—Richard Steele (1672–1729)

“Courtesy is breeding. Breeding is an excellent thing. Always remember that.”
