Famous quotes containing the words lady and/or charity:
“It is perfectly right for a gentleman to say “ladies and gentlemen,” but a lady should say, “gentlemen and ladies.” You mention your friend’s name before you do your own. I always feel like rebuking any woman who says, “ladies and gentlemen.” It is a lack of good manners.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
“These days are dangerous;
Virtue is choked with foul ambition,
And charity chased hence by rancor’s hand.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
