Famous quotes containing the words vanessa and/or williams:

    Vanessa wanted to be a ballerina. Dad had such hopes for her.... Corin was the academically brilliant one, and a fencer of Olympic standard. Everything was expected of them, and they fulfilled all expectations. But I was the one of whom nothing was expected. I remember a game the three of us played. Vanessa was the President of the United States, Corin was the British Prime Minister—and I was the royal dog.
    Lynn Redgrave (b. 1943)

    Oh is that
    all? I tho’t it was something else. Oh
    they jump and run too. I wish you had been
    there, I was so interested to hear about it.
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
