French Painter

Famous quotes containing the words french and/or painter:

    The third day of Christmas,
    My true love sent to me
    Three French hens,

    And there’s a score of duchesses, surpassing womankind,
    Or who have found a painter to make them so for pay
    And smooth out stain and blemish with the elegance of his mind:
    I knew a phoenix in my youth, so let them have their day.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
