Famous quotes containing the words garden and/or company:

At the sea-downs edge between windward and lee,
Walled round with rocks as an inland island,
The ghost of a garden fronts the sea.”

“It has lately been drawn to your correspondents attention that, at social gatherings, she is not the human magnet she would be.

It would appear, from the actions of the assembled guests, that she is about as hot company as a night nurse.”
—Dorothy Parker (18931967)
