Macdougall

Famous quotes containing the word macdougall:

    Mildred Pierce: You look down on me because I work for a living, don’t you? You always have. All right, I work. I cook food and sell it and make a profit on it, which, I might point out, you’re not too proud to share with me.
    Monte Beragon: Yes, I take money from you, Mildred. But not enough to make me like kitchens or cooks. They smell of grease.
    Mildred Pierce: I don’t notice you shrinking away from a fifty- dollar bill because it smells of grease.
    —Ranald MacDougall (1915–1973)

    Perhaps nothing in all my business has helped me more than faith in my fellow man. From the very first I felt confident that I could trust the great, friendly public. So I told it quite simply what I thought, what I felt, what I was trying to do. And the response was quick, sure, and immediate.
    —Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)

    Life is beset by many annoyances, and those that stand out above all are the life- insurance and advertising agents.
    —Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)
