Famous quotes containing the words ladies and/or love:
“I went to a literary gathering once.... The place was filled with people who looked as if they had been scraped up out of drains. The ladies ran to draped plush dressesfor Art; to wreaths of silken flowerets in the hairfor Femininity; and, somewhere between the two adornments, to chain-drive pince-nezfor Astigmatism. The gentlemen were small and somewhat in need of dusting.”
—Dorothy Parker (18931967)
“The appalling thing is the degree of charity women are capable of. You see it all the time ... love lavished on absolute fools. Loves a charity ward, you know.”
