“Away went Gilpin, neck or naught, / Away went hat and wig!”
William Cowper
“John Gilpin was a citizen / Of credit and renown, / A train-band captain eke was he / Of famous London town.”
“The dinner waits, and we are tired: / Said Gilpin - So am I!”
“There's no trust, no faith, no honesty in men; all perjured, all forsworn, all naught, all dissemblers.”
William Shakespeare
“Naught venture, naught have”
Proverb
“All for naught. That's the way I look at it. I can't dwell on things I did well in the game, knowing that one play kind of cost us the game, even though it happened before halftime. In my mind I still go back to that one play.”
Antowain Smith
“If we go 9-1, it's all for naught if we don't beat Rainier Beach.”
Anthony Williams
