Unknown. The Gypsy Laddie

Famous quotes containing the words unknown, gypsy and/or laddie:

    The treasury of America lies in those ambitions and those energies that cannot be restricted to a special, favored class. It depends upon the inventions of unknown men; upon the originations of unknown men, upon the ambitions of unknown men. Every country is renewed out of the ranks of the unknown, not out of the ranks of those already famous and powerful and in control.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    You and you alone bring out the gypsy in me.
    Ira Gershwin (1896–1983)

    Oft have I played at cards and dice,
    Because they were so enticing;
    But this is a sad and sorrowful day
    To see my apron rising.
    —Unknown. The Rantin Laddie (l. 1–4)
