Lady Randolph

Famous quotes containing the words lady and/or randolph:

    I spoke at a woman’s club in Philadelphia yesterday and a young lady said to me afterwards, “Well, that sounds very nice, but don’t you think it is better to be the power behind the throne?” I answered that I had not had much experience with thrones, but a woman who has been on a throne, and who is now behind it, seems to prefer to be on the throne.
    Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)

    When you consider the radiance, that it does not withhold
    itself but pours its abundance without selection into every
    nook and cranny
    —Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
