Deformed Shorts

Famous quotes containing the words deformed and/or shorts:

    The sense of an entailed disadvantage—the deformed foot doubtfully hidden by the shoe, makes a restlessly active spiritual yeast, and easily turns a self-centred, unloving nature into an Ishmaelite. But in the rarer sort, who presently see their own frustrated claim as one among a myriad, the inexorable sorrow takes the form of fellowship and makes the imagination tender.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    I don’t want to smoke cigars or go to stag parties, wear jockey shorts or pick up the check.
    Shelley Winters (b. 1922)
