• Ergo, no es San Jorge el patrón de Inglaterra, sino Set de los hicsos. En términos generales, siempre que se utiliza el término clave "rojo" en el Antiguo Testamento, denota la dinastía de los Hicsos. Conectada a la Orden de la Jarretera, está la Muy Distinguida Orden de San Miguel y San Jorge, formada en 1818. Además, cuenta la leyenda que los miembros más antiguos de la dinastía merovingia de Francia (fundadores de los templarios) tenían marcas de nacimiento en forma de cruz roja.

• I must admit to a personal lack of sympathy with women who have themselves photographed in black stockings, garter belts and boots, with bare breasts, bananas, and coy, come-hither glances.... A woman using her own face and body has a right to do what she will with them, but it is a subtle abyss that separates men's use of women for sexual titillation from women's use of women to expose that insult.

• My worst memory is of my first dance lesson as a 14-year old in Prague. My mother put me in this silver and pink lame dress. My hair was all curled, and it was the first time I wore a garter belt. I felt so out of place!

• Me, Polly Garter, under the washing line, giving the breast in the garden to my bonny new baby. Nothing grows in our garden, only washing. And babies. And where's their fathers live, my love? Over the hills and far away. You're looking up at me now. I know what you're thinking, you poor little milky creature. You're thinking, you're no better than you should be, Polly, and that's good enough for me. Oh, isn't life a terrible thing, thank God?

• The Democrats talked about putting people first. Well, they put people first unless you happen to be a spotted owl or a giant garter snake or some other endangered species and then that seems to have priority. Obviously, you take the bald eagle and things of that sort, of course you're going to make sure that they are saved and that they can live and you're going to take every precaution that you can. But others - we just need a little flexibility.

• El tricot está formado por una serie de bucles que se pasan a través de bucles hasta el final del tiempo o hasta la "longitud deseada". Al recoger las lazadas y trabajar en sentido contrario, en realidad estás recogiendo las concavidades entre las lazadas, y es pura brujería inesperada que el punto media y el punto bobo permitan tal anomalía. Agradézcalo y no espere más.

  Elizabeth Zimmermann

• It is the highest and most legitimate pride of an Englishman to have the letters M.P. written after his name. No selection from the alphabet, no doctorship, no fellowship, be it of ever so learned or royal a society, no knightship,--not though it be of the Garter,--confers so fair an honour.

• Había liberado a putas de vestidos, medias, chemises, ligueros y medias. Nunca en su vida había desabrochado el guante de una doncella suavemente criada. Había cometido actos salaces incontables. Nunca antes se habia sentido tan depravado como ahora, cuando la ultima perla se solto y bajo el suave cabrito, mostrandole la muñeca, y sus oscuros dedos rozaron la delicada piel que habia dejado al descubierto.

• Una liga. Se supone que te la quitas y la guardas como recuerdo. Es como un trofeo por llegar lejos sexualmente con una chica. Es estúpido, de verdad. Y algo d-degradante si pienso mucho en ello." "Sé lo que es", dice, con evidente diversión en su voz. "Sólo quería oír tu explicación.

• Behold the child, by Nature's kindly law, Pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw; Some livelier plaything gives his youth delight, A little louder, but as empty quite; Scarfs, garters, gold, amuse his riper stage, And beads and prayer-books are the toys of age. Pleased with this bauble still, as that before, Till tired he sleeps, and life's poor play is o'er.

• The FlowersAll the names I know from nurse:Gardener's garters, Shepherd's purse,Bachelor's buttons, Lady's smock,And the Lady Hollyhock.Fairy places, fairy things,Fairy woods where the wild bee wings,Tiny trees for tiny dames-These must all be fairy names!Tiny woods below whose boughsShady fairies weave a house;Tiny tree-tops, rose or thyme,Where the braver fairies climb!Fair are grown-up people's trees,But the fairest woods are these;Where, if I were not so tall,I should live for good and all
