Queen Anne Style

Famous quotes containing the words queen, anne and/or style:

    It is better to pay court to a queen ... than to worship, as we too often do, some unworthy person whose wealth is his sole passport into society. I believe that a habit of respect is good for the human race.
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    “... Anne has a way with flowers to take the place
    Of what she’s lost: she goes down on one knee
    And lifts their faces by the chin to hers
    And says their names, and leaves them where they are.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    A cultivated style would be like a mask. Everybody knows it’s a mask, and sooner or later you must show yourself—or at least, you show yourself as someone who could not afford to show himself, and so created something to hide behind.... You do not create a style. You work, and develop yourself; your style is an emanation from your own being.
    Katherine Anne Porter (1890–1980)
