Famous quotes containing the words fat and/or hen:
“Always be on time. Never try to make any personal engagements. Do as little talking as humanly possible. Never be disturbed by anything. Always do what you’re told to do as quickly as possible. Remember to lean back in a parade, so that people can see your husband. Don’t get too fat to ride three on a seat. Get out of the way as quickly as you’re not needed.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
“The house-dog lost,
the little hen escaped,
the precious hay-rick scattered,”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
