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)

    ... a friend told me that she had read of a woman who had knitted a wash rag for President Wilson. She was eighty years old and her friends thought it remarkable that she could knit a wash rag! I thought that if a woman of eighty could knit a wash rage for a Democratic President it behooved one of ninety-six to make something more than a wash rag for a Republican President.
    —Maria D. Brown (1827–1927)

    For sleeping, like death,
    Must be won without pride,
    With a nod from nature,
    With a lack of strain,
    And a loss of stature.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
