Quotes by Julia Cooke (?)

“What was revolutionary was the lack of should in this job, and the plenitude of could.”
― Julia Cooke, Come Fly The World: The Jet-Age Story of the Women of Pan Am

“Havana was a woman who had once been renowned for her beauty until hard times had soured her. Her hand had gotten heavy with makeup application: her necklines had crept down; her beauty was tainted with vulgarity. But sometimes when she was alone, after she'd taken off her makeup, she danced in her garden, bare-faced and barefoot, to an old bolero, and the old elegance appeared, normal as a Tuesday evening.”
― Julia Cooke
