Quote by Lilly Daché

“A hat is the expression of a woman’s soul. It is something she wears on her head, but it belongs to her heart. It is her challenge to the world. She does not wear it to keep warm, or to provide a shade from the sun, though it may do those things too. She wears it to please a husband or a sweetheart, or to get one. She wears it to make other women jealous, sometimes, and sometimes she wears it to get a job. It is the keynote of her personality, the finishing touch that makes her look beautiful, and smart, and sure of herself, if it is the right hat.”

“Come all you fair and tender girls That flourish in your prime Beware, beware, keep your garden fair Let no man steal your thyme Let no man steal your thyme For when your thyme, it is past and gone He'll care no more for you And every place your time was waste Will all spread over with rue Will all spread over with rue The goddess son was standing by Three flowers he gave to me The pink, the blue and the violet true And the red, red rosy tree And the red, red rosy tree But I refused the red rose bush And gave the willow tree That all the world may plainly see How my love slighted me How my love slighted me”
