Began Calling

Famous quotes containing the words began and/or calling:

    Courtship was a serious business for the reason that everybody knew when a young couple began to ‘set up’ with each other. They could tell by the sparks flying from the chimney late at night.
    State of Indiana, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    [T]he most artful method [of courtship] would be this, to tell her that what she doth not possess is useless and contemptible, that weakness and imperfection is the perfection of a woman, that I am stark mad in love with ignorance; and thus shall I allure her by calling her [a] fool.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
