The Making of A Prostitute

Famous quotes containing the words making and/or prostitute:

    her fine blades making the air wince
    but her cargo
    no promise then:
    delivered
    palpable
    ours.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    The elements of success in this business do not differ from the elements of success in any other. Competition is keen and bitter. Advertising is as large an element as in any other business, and since the usual avenues of successful exploitation are closed to the profession, the adage that the best advertisement is a pleased customer is doubly true for this business.
    Madeleine [Blair], U.S. prostitute and “madam.” Madeleine, ch. 5 (1919)
