Nether Bailey

Famous quotes containing the words nether and/or bailey:

    “An oblong puddle inset in the coarse asphalt; like a fancy footprint filled to the brim with quicksilver; like a spatulate hole through which you can see the nether sky. Surrounded, I note, by a diffuse tentacled black dampness where some dull dun dead leaves have stuck. Drowned, I should say, before the puddle had shrunk to its present size.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “I never cared for fashion much, amusing little seams and witty little pleats: it was the girls I liked.”
    —David Bailey (b. 1938)
