Jig Quotations
Love is a perky elf dancing a merry little jig and then suddenly he turns on you with a miniature machine gun. Matt Groening I just like to catch fish, I don't care if it weighs half a pound or 10 pounds. But I can't do a lot of casting. I can work a jig or a worm. But not for long, especially if the big ones are biting. Those big bass will make it hurt after a while. Terry Bradshaw Did I get jiggy with Will? I would have to say no! Did I have fun with Will? I would have to say yeah! But you know, I did not jig with the man, if you know what I'm saying! Bruce Greenwood She danced a jig, she sung a song that took my heart away. William Allingham |
