James Gordon Brown

Famous quotes containing the words james, gordon and/or brown:

    All it means, if you wilt that way with a lady, is that you haven’t yet really met her. You’re not trying to make love to a woman, you’re trying not to miss an opportunity.
    —Clive James (b. 1939)

    A woman who ... gives any advantage to a man may expect a lover—but will sooner or later find a tyrant.
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    Out of the bosom of the Air,
    Out of the cloud-folds of her garments shaken,
    Over the woodlands brown and bare,
    Over the harvest-fields forsaken,
    Silent, and soft, and slow
    Descends the snow.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
