Hard Hats

Famous quotes containing the words hard and/or hats:

    I broke my heart in two
    So hard I struck.
    What matter? for I know
    That out of rock,
    Out of a desolate source,
    Love leaps upon its course.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    My consolation is to think of the women I have known, now that there is no longer such thing as elegance. But how can people who contemplate these horrible creatures under their hats covered in pigeon-houses or gardens, how can they understand the charm of seeing Madame Swann wearing a simple mauve cap or a small hat surmounted by a straight iris?
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
