Felt Hat Industry

Famous quotes containing the words felt, hat and/or industry:

    ... I was crying partly because I felt that this was expected of me, partly from genuine repentance, but partly also because of a deeper grief which is peculiar to childhood and not easy to convey: a sense of desolate loneliness and helplessness, of being locked up not only in a hostile world but in a world of good and evil where the rules were such that it was actually not possible for me to keep them.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)

    As a cure for the cold, take your toddy to bed, put one bowler hat at the foot, and drink until you see two.
    Robert Bruce, Sir Lockhart (1886–1970)

    As our boys and men are all expecting to be Presidents, so our girls and women must all hold themselves in readiness to preside in the White House; and in no city in the world can honest industry be more at a discount than in this capital of the government of the people.
    Jane Grey Swisshelm (1815–1884)
