Famous quotes containing the words indian and/or pop:

    There is no difference between the client and the prostitute. If a man goes to a prostitute, he is also a prostitute.
    Sister Michele, Indian nun. As quoted in the New York Times Magazine, p. 35 (January 16, 1994)

    Every man has been brought up with the idea that decent women don’t pop in and out of bed; he has always been told by his mother that “nice girls don’t.” He finds, of course, when he gets older that this may be untrue—but only in a certain section of society.
    Barbara Cartland (b. 1901)
