Leather Apron

Famous quotes containing the words leather and/or apron:

“What shall he have that killed the deer?
His leather skin and horns to wear.
Then sing him home.
Take thou no scorn to wear the horn,
It was a crest ere thou wast born;
Thy father’s father wore it,
And thy father bore it.
The horn, the horn, the lusty horn
Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“St. Louis woman, wid her diamon’ rings,
Pulls dat man ‘roun’ by her apron strings.”
—W.C. Handy (1873–1958)
