Jones Won

Famous quotes containing the words jones and/or won:

“Strange goings on! Jones did it slowly, deliberately, in the bathroom, with a knife, at midnight. What he did was butter a piece of toast. We are too familiar with the language of action to notice at first an anomaly: the ‘it’ of ‘Jones did it slowly, deliberately,...’ seems to refer to some entity, presumably an action, that is then characterized in a number of ways.”
—Donald Davidson (b. 1917)

“A girl loves most often because she is loved,Mnot from choice on her part. She is won by the flattery of the man’s desire.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
