Yon

Famous quotes containing the word yon:

“I have no faith in our hypocritical, false, hysterical, uneducated and lazy intelligentsia when they suffer and complain: their oppression comes from within. I believe in individual people. I see salvation in discrete individuals, intellectuals and peasants, strewn hither and yon throughout Russia. They have the strength, although there are few of them.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

““Who touches a hair of yon gray head
Dies like a dog! March on!” he said”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

“Where lies the Land to which yon Ship must go?”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
