Jump

Famous quotes containing the word jump:

    Most of the folktales dealing with the Indians are lurid and romantic. The story of the Indian lovers who were refused permission to wed and committed suicide is common to many places.

    One is twice as willing to jump in after a person who has fallen into the water when there are people present who do not dare to do so.

    And they holler, they jump and they shout,
