Famous quotes containing the words john and/or younger:

    Fair, rich, and young: how rare is her perfection,
    Were it not mingled with one foul infection!
    I mean, so proud a heart, so curst a tongue,
    As makes her seem nor fair, nor rich, nor young.
    —Sir John Harington (1561–1612)

    If we are the younger, we may envy the older. If we are the older, we may feel that the younger is always being indulged. In other words, no matter what position we hold in family order of birth, we can prove beyond a doubt that we’re being gypped.
    Judith Viorst (20th century)
