Gentlemen Quotes (page 4)

I will tell you another thing that would be better, and that is, if I myself believe even an iota of what I have just written.

Inside the lid was an enamel picture of Leda and the Swan, and when a knob was pushed to and fro the swan thrust itself between Leda's legs, which jerked in mechanical ecstasy. A nasty toy, I thought, but Urky doted on it. "We single gentlemen like to have these things," he said. "What do you do, Darcourt? Of... Robertson Davies

I come from the South and I know what war is, for I have seen its terrible wreckage and ruin. It is easy for me as President to declare war.

Woodrow Wilson
