Wore Black Pants

Famous quotes containing the words wore, black and/or pants:

    The motion picture is like a picture of a lady in a half- piece bathing suit. If she wore a few more clothes, you might be intrigued. If she wore no clothes at all, you might be shocked. But the way it is, you are occupied with noticing that her knees are too bony and that her toenails are too large. The modern film tries too hard to be real. Its techniques of illusion are so perfect that it requires no contribution from the audience but a mouthful of popcorn.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    So now it is vain for the singer to burst into clamor
    With the great black piano appassionato. The glamour
    Of childish days is upon me, my manhood is cast
    Down in the flood of remembrance, I weep like a child for the past.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    There was a young fellow called Lancelot
    Whom his neighbors all looked on askance a lot.
    Whenever he’d pass
    A presentable lass,
    The front of his pants would advance a lot.
