Famous quotes containing the words john and/or wild:
“How soon I may ride the whole world about;
And at the third question thou must not shrink,
But tell me here truly what I do think.””

“We follow where the Swamp Fox guides,
His friends and merry men are we;
And when the troop of Tarleton rides,
We burrow in the cypress tree.
The turfy hammock is our bed,
Our home is in the red deer’s den,
Our roof, the tree-top overhead,
For we are wild and hunted men.”
—William Gilmore Simms (1806–1872)
