Suitable Girl

Famous quotes containing the words suitable and/or girl:

    Who should come to my lodge this morning but a true Homeric or Paphlagonian man,—he had so suitable and poetic a name that I am sorry I cannot print it here,—a Canadian, a woodchopper and post-maker, who can hole fifty posts in a day, who made his last supper on a woodchuck which his dog caught.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There was a little girl, she had a little curl
    Right in the middle of her forehead;
    And when she was good, she was very, very good,
    And when she was bad, she was horrid.
    Mother Goose (fl. 17th–18th century. There Was a Little Girl (attributed to Mother Goose)
