Famous quotes containing the word joyous:
“Oh! a private buffoon is a light-hearted loon,
If you listen to popular rumour;
From morning to night hes so joyous and bright,
And he bubbles with wit and good humour!”

“In spite of all the learned have said,
I still my old opinion keep;
The posture, that we give the dead,
Points out the souls eternal sleep.
Not so the ancients of these lands
The Indian, when from life released,
Again is seated with his friends,
And shares again the joyous feast.”
—Philip Freneau (17521832)
