Famous quotes containing the words phyllis mcginley and/or mcginley:

“A lady is smarter than a gentleman, maybe,
She can sew a fine seam, she can have a baby,
She can use her intuition instead of her brain,
But she can’t fold a paper in a crowded train.”

“The Enemy, who wears
Her mother’s usual face
And confidential tone,
Has access; doubtless stares
Into her writing case
And listens on the phone.”
