Famous quotes containing the words don and/or young:

    When you think of the huge uninterrupted success of a book like Don Quixote, you’re bound to realize that if humankind have not yet finished being revenged, by sheer laughter, for being let down in their greatest hope, it is because that hope was cherished so long and lay so deep!
    Georges Bernanos (1888–1948)

    There was a young man of Madras
    Who had a magnificent ass:
    Not rounded and pink,
    As you probably think—
    It was grey, had long ears, and ate grass.
