My landlady, who is only a tailor's widow, reads her Milton; and tells me, that her late husband first fell in love with her on this very account: because she read Milton with such proper emphasis.

Karl Philipp Moritz

To be famous, in fact, one has only to kill one's landlady.

Albert Camus

I like 'Goodbye My Lover' because it's a really personal song and I recorded it in my landlady's bathroom in Los Angeles. She had a piano in there and for me listening back to it, it actually sounds like the voice I hear in my head. It's so close to what I can imagine.

James Blunt

Where does a man get inspiration to write a song like that? Well, he gets it from the landlady once a month.

John Michael Hayes

My landlady, who is only a tailor's widow, reads her Milton; and tells me, that her late husband first fell in love with her on this very account: because she read Milton with such proper emphasis.

Karl Philipp Moritz

I was 38 when 'Not Going Out' began, and I was playing a 34-year-old who had a thing about his landlady.

Lee Mack

I'm no Robert Christgau or Chuck Klosterman, but I would say that Landlady is like if Harry Nilsson was produced by Brian Eno. Or, if David Byrne fronted Wilco. Those are my two hoity-toity musical epigrams.

Scott Rogowsky

The landlady of a boarding-house is a parallelogram - that is, an oblong angular figure, which cannot be described, but which is equal to anything.
