Dead Lady

Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or lady:

    And they came to an end, a dead end stirred with a flicker of life,
    And they came to the withered ancient look of a child that has died of starvation.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    ... it was not very unusual at Washington for a lady to take the arm of a gentleman, who was neither her husband, her father, nor her brother. This remarkable relaxation of American decorum has been probably introduced by the foreign legations.
    Frances Trollope (1780–1863)
