Anthony Jay

Famous quotes containing the words anthony and/or jay:

    This is rather different from the receptions I used to get fifty years ago. They threw things at me then—but they were not roses.
    —Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)

    You may call a jay a bird. Well, so he is, in a measure—because he’s got feathers on him, and don’t belong to no church, perhaps; but otherwise he is just as much a human as you be. And I’ll tell you for why. A jay’s gifts and instincts, and feelings, and interests, cover the whole ground. A jay hasn’t got any more principle than a Congressman.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
