Famous quotes containing the words jolly and/or rogers:
“I think that a young state, like a young virgin, should modestly stay at home, and wait the application of suitors for an alliance with her; and not run about offering her amity to all the world; and hazarding their refusal.... Our virgin is a jolly one; and tho at present not very rich, will in time be a great fortune, and where she has a favorable predisposition, it seems to me well worth cultivating.”
—Benjamin Franklin (17061790)
“Call them rules or call them limits, good ones, I believe, have this in common: They serve reasonable purposes; they are practical and within a childs capability; they are consistent; and they are an expression of loving concern.”
—Fred Rogers (20th century)
