Feather Duster Company

Famous quotes containing the words feather, duster and/or company:

    A feather bed had every man,
    Warm slippers and hot-water can,
    Brown windsor from the captain’s store,
    A valet, too, to every four.
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    Always polite, fastidiously dressed in a linen duster and mask, he used to leave behind facetious rhymes signed “Black Bart, Po—8,” in mail and express boxes after he had finished rifling them.
    —For the State of California, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    I have noticed that doctors who fail in the practice of medicine have a tendency to seek one another’s company and aid in consultation. A doctor who cannot take out your appendix properly will recommend you to a doctor who will be unable to remove your tonsils with success.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
