Dirty

Famous quotes containing the word dirty:

“He shakes the dust from off his feet
And shambles down the dirty street
The last man in the town, they said,
Who’d shot a hundred Yankees dead.”

Or grope with a dirty hand.”

“Politics is still the man’s game. The women are allowed to do the chores, the dirty work, and now and then—but only occasionally—one is present at some secret conference or other. But it’s not the rule. They can go out and get the vote, if they can and will; they can collect money, they can be grateful for being permitted to work. But that is all.”
—Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)
