Famous quotes containing the word engagements:

    What stays with you latest and deepest? of curious panics,
    Of hard-fought engagements or sieges tremendous what deepest
    remains?
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    I’ve given parties that have made Indian rajahs green with envy. I’ve had prima donnas break $10,000 engagements to come to my smallest dinners. When you were still playing button back in Ohio, I entertained on a cruising trip that was so much fun that I had to sink my yacht to make my guests go home.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
