Famous quotes containing the word white:
“Other men wear white suits in summer and it doesn’t seem to bother them. But my white suit seems to be a little whiter than theirs. I think also that it may have something written on the back of it, although I can’t find it when I take the suit off.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
