Famous quotes containing the words dry and/or skin:
“Among the Very Rich you will never find a really generous man, even by accident. They may give their money away, but they will never give themselves away; they are egoistic, secretive, dry as old bones. To be smart enough to get all that money you must be dull enough to want it.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
“An old man, sir, and his wits are not so blunt as, God help, I would desire they were; but, in faith, honest as the skin between his brows.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
