Famous quotes containing the words jay and/or johnson:

    For a painter, the Mecca of the world, for study, for inspiration and for living is here on this star called Paris. Just look at it, no wonder so many artists have come here and called it home. Brother, if you can’t paint in Paris, you’d better give up and marry the boss’s daughter.
    —Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)

    Vanquished in life, his death
    By beauty made amends:
    The passing of his breath
    Won his defeated ends.
    —Lionel Pigot Johnson (1867–1902)
