Life Peers

Famous quotes containing the words life and/or peers:

“The train was crammed, the heat stifling. We feel out of sorts, but do not quite know if we are hungry or drowsy.

—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

“A beautiful woman peers out her window, as full of envy as the harridan who peers up at her from the street.”
