Orthodox Women

Famous quotes containing the words orthodox and/or women:

    If the jests that you crack have an orthodox smack,
    You may get a bland smile from these sages;

    Half-a-crown is stopped out of your wages!
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    Modesty is a quality in a lover more praised by the women than liked.
