Christopher Morley Quotes:
Ocupation: Journalist
Life: May 5, 1890 - March 28, 1957
Birthday: May 5
Death: March 28
Truth is what every man sees lurking at the bottom of his own soul, like the oyster shell housewives put in the kitchen kettle to collect the lime from the water. By and by each man's iridescent oyster shell of Truth becomes coated with the lime of prejudice and hearsay.
