Famous quotes containing the words barefoot and/or jerry:
“A young person is a person with nothing to learn
One who already knows that ice does not chill and fire does not burn . . .
It knows it can spend six hours in the sun on its first
day at the beach without ending up a skinless beet,
And it knows it can walk barefoot through the barn
without running a nail in its feet. . . .
Meanwhile psychologists grow rich
Writing that the young are ones’ should not
undermine the self-confidence of which.”
—Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
“Then word goes forth in Formic:
“Death’s come to Jerry McCormic,
Our selfless forager Jerry.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
