Famous quotes containing the word meet:
“Look at your [English] ladies of quality—are they not forever parting with their husbands—forfeiting their reputations—and is their life aught but dissipation? In common genteel life, indeed, you may now and then meet with very fine girls—who have politeness, sense and conversation—but these are few—and then look at your trademen’s daughters—what are they?—poor creatures indeed! all pertness, imitation and folly.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
“What though I cannot meet my bills?
What though I suffer toothache’s ills?
What though I swallow countless pills?”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
“There is much here that does not meet the eye, that is obvious.”
—Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
