Ladies

Famous quotes containing the word ladies:

    I, of ladies most deject and wretched,
    That sucked the honey of his music vows,
    Now see that noble and most sovereign reason
    Like sweet bells jangled out of tune and harsh.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Almost yesterday, those gentle ladies stole
    to their baths in Atlantic City, for the lost
    rites of the first sea of the first salt
    running from a faucet.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Captain Carpenter rose up in his prime
    Put on his pistols and went riding out
    But had got wellnigh nowhere at that time
    Till he fell in with ladies in a rout.
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
