Girls Blouse Mix

Famous quotes containing the words girls, blouse and/or mix:

    An eminent teacher of girls said, “the idea of a girl’s education, is, whatever qualifies them for going to Europe.”
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    A slight digression: that bit about my mother was a deliberate lie. In reality, she was a woman of the people, simple and coarse, sordidly dressed in a kind of blouse hanging loose at the waist. I could, of course, have crossed it out, but I purposely leave it there as a sample of one of my essential traits: my light-hearted, inspired lying.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    One could laugh at the world better if it didn’t mix tender kindliness with its brutality.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
