"I went to a literary gathering once.... The place was filled with people who looked as if they had been scraped up out of drains. The ladies ran to draped plush dresses-for Art; to wreaths of silken flowerets in the hair-for Femininity; and, somewhere between the two adornments, to chain-drive pince-nez-for Astigmatism. The gentlemen were small and somewhat in need of dusting."

Dorothy Parker, U.S. author and humorist. Constant Reader
