Ladies

Famous quotes containing the word ladies:

    When other Ladies to the Shades go down,
    Still Flavia, Chloris, Celia stay in Town;
    Those Ghosts of Beauty ling’ring there abide,
    And haunt the places where their Honour dy’d.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    The happiness of the body consists in the possession of health; that of the mind, in being sensible of that blessing.
    Anonymous, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. Weekly Visitor or Ladies Miscellany, p. 189 (March 1803)

    Fine knacks for ladies, cheap, choice, brave and new,
    Good pennyworths,—but money cannot move:
    I keep a fair but for the Fair to view,—
    A beggar may be liberal of love.
    Though all my wares be trash, the heart is true,
    —Unknown. Fine Knacks for Ladies (l. 7–8)
