Jerry Brown Won

Famous quotes containing the words jerry, brown and/or won:

    Hell and damnation,
    life is such fun
    with a ragged greatcoat
    and a Jerry gun!
    Alexander Blok (1880–1921)

    The river’s tent is broken; the last fingers of leaf
    Clutch and sink into the wet bank. The wind
    Crosses the brown land, unheard. The nymphs are departed.
    Sweet Thames, run softly, till I end my song.
    The river bears no empty bottles, sandwich papers,
    Silk handkerchiefs, cardboard boxes, cigarette ends
    Or other testimony of summer nights.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    What then in love can woman do?
    If we grow fond they shun us.
    And when we fly them, they pursue:
    But leave us when they’ve won us.
    John Gay (1685–1732)
