Dirty

Famous quotes containing the word dirty:

“Politics is still the man’s game. The women are allowed to do the chores, the dirty work, and now and then—but only occasionally—one is present at some secret conference or other. But it’s not the rule. They can go out and get the vote, if they can and will; they can collect money, they can be grateful for being permitted to work. But that is all.”
—Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)

“All that hoops are good for is to clean dirty shoes and keep fellows at a distance.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

“There is no release
In a bodkin or disease,
Nor can there be a work so great
As that which cleans man’s dirty slate.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
