Lady Gregory

Famous quotes containing the words lady and/or gregory:

    The Lady Amelia would not for worlds have had the de Courcy blood defiled; but gold she thought could not defile.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    There’s something like a line of gold thread running through a man’s words when he talks to his daughter, and gradually over the years it gets to be long enough for you pick up in your hands and weave into a cloth that feels like love itself. It’s another thing, though, to hold up that cloth for inspection.
    —John Gregory Brown (20th century)
