White Hats

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or hats:

“He thought that I was after him for a feather—
The white one in his tail; like one who takes
Everything said as personal to himself.”

“My consolation is to think of the women I have known, now that there is no longer such thing as elegance. But how can people who contemplate these horrible creatures under their hats covered in pigeon-houses or gardens, how can they understand the charm of seeing Madame Swann wearing a simple mauve cap or a small hat surmounted by a straight iris?”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
