Famous quotes containing the word harlot:
“The old-fashioned idea that the simple piling up of experiences, one on top of another, can make you an artist, is, of course, so much rubbish. If acting were just a matter of experience, then any busy harlot could make Garbo’s Camille pale.”
—Helen Hayes (1900–1993)
“If a woman hasn’t got a tiny streak of a harlot in her, she’s a dry stick as a rule.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“But what is Hope? Nothing but the paint on the face of Existence; the least touch of truth rubs it off, and then we see what a hollow-cheeked harlot we have got hold of.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
