Toronto Lady Blues

Famous quotes containing the words lady and/or blues:

“A lady is smarter than a gentleman, maybe,
She can sew a fine seam, she can have a baby,
She can use her intuition instead of her brain,
But she can’t fold a paper in a crowded train.”
—Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)

“It is from the blues that all that may be called American music derives its most distinctive character.”
