Worthy Lady

Famous quotes containing the words worthy and/or lady:

“Is suffering so very serious? I have come to doubt it. It may be quite childish, a sort of undignified pastime—I’m referring to the kind of suffering a man inflicts on a woman or a woman on a man. It’s extremely painful. I agree that it’s hardly bearable. But I very much fear that this sort of pain deserves no consideration at all. It’s no more worthy of respect than old age or illness.”
—Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)

“Night makes no difference ‘twixt the Priest and Clerk;
Joan as my Lady is as good i’ th’ dark.”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
