Lady Eve

Famous quotes containing the words lady and/or eve:

“For I could tell you a story which is true;
I know a lady with a terrible tongue,
Blear eyes fallen from blue,
All her perfections tarnished—and yet it is not long
Since she was lovelier than any of you.”
—John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

“It was not a Southern watermelon that Eve took: we know it because she repented.”
