Mott Haven

Famous quotes containing the words mott and/or haven:

    And tell me what street
    Compares with Mott Street
    In July?
    Lorenz Hart (1895–1943)

    Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting. It was a haven for those of us adept at styling each other’s hair, playing canasta, and chain smoking Pall Mall extra-long cigarettes.
    Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
