Famous quotes containing the words john and/or hay:

    Old men who never cheated, never doubted,
    Communicated monthly, sit and stare
    At the new suburb stretched beyond the run-way
    Where a young man lands hatless from the air.
    —Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)

    The fact is the sweetest dream that labor knows.
    My long scythe whispered and left the hay to make.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
