William Smith Otis

Famous quotes containing the words smith and/or otis:

    Our love is old, our lives are old,
    And death shall come amain:
    Should it come today, what man may say
    We shall not live again?
    —Langdon Smith (1858–1908)

    It’s not that I don’t want to be a beauty, that I don’t yearn to be dripping with glamor. It’s just that I can’t see how any woman can find time to do to herself all the things that must apparently be done to make herself beautiful and, having once done them, how anyone without the strength of mind of a foreign missionary can keep up such a regime.
    —Cornelia Otis Skinner (1901–1979)
