Famous quotes containing the words arthur and/or young:

    Have We not made the earth as a cradle
    and the mountains as pegs?
    And We created you in pairs,
    and We appointed your sleep for a rest;
    and We appointed night for a garment,
    and We appointed day for a livelihood.
    And We have built above you seven strong ones,
    and We appointed a blazing lamp
    and have sent down out of the rain-clouds water cascading
    that We may bring forth thereby grain and plants,
    and gardens luxuriant.
    Qur’an, “The Tiding” 78:6-16, ed. Arthur J. Arberry (1955)

    There was a young man of Japan
    Whose limericks never would scan.
    When folks told him so,
    He replied, “Yes, I know,
    But I always try to get as many words into the last line as I possibly can.”
