1st Viscount Slim

Famous quotes containing the words viscount and/or slim:

    Literature, the most seductive, the most deceiving, the most dangerous of professions.
    John Morley [1st Viscount Morley Of Blackburn] (1838–1923)

    Expecting me to grovel,
    she carefully covers both feet
    with the hem of her skirt.
    She pretends to hide
    a coming smile
    and won’t look straight at me.
    When I talk to her,
    she chats with her friend
    in cross tones.
    Even this slim girl’s rising anger
    delights me,
    let alone her deep love.
    Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
