Unknown. Jolly Jankin

Famous quotes containing the words unknown, jolly and/or jankin:

    The unknown always seems unbelievable, Lucas.
    Harry Essex (b. 1910)

    I think that a young state, like a young virgin, should modestly stay at home, and wait the application of suitors for an alliance with her; and not run about offering her amity to all the world; and hazarding their refusal.... Our virgin is a jolly one; and tho at present not very rich, will in time be a great fortune, and where she has a favorable predisposition, it seems to me well worth cultivating.
    Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)

    As I went on Yule day
    In our procession,
    Knew I jolly Jankin
    By his merry tone—
    Kyrie eleison.
    —Unknown. Jolly Jankin (l. Chorus.)
