Jones Won

Famous quotes containing the words jones and/or won:

“There used to be two kinds of kisses. First when girls were kissed and deserted; second, when they were engaged. Now there’s a third kind, where the man is kissed and deserted. If Mr. Jones of the nineties bragged he’d kissed a girl, everyone knew he was through with her. If Mr. Jones of 1919 brags the same everyone knows it’s because he can’t kiss her any more. Given a decent start any girl can beat a man nowadays.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

“The real enemy can always be met and conquered, or won over. Real antagonism is based on love, a love which has not recognized itself.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
