“Quid pro quo” can be found under “Q” in the dictionary proper, between “quidnunc” and “quids in.”

It was then sold in convenient pennyworths;—hence coffee-houses where wits, quidnuncs, and idlers resorted, were called “penny universities.”

We have not now to haggle with the quidnuncs over the less or more of Art permissible in a garden, but to fight out the question whether civilisation shall have any garden at all.

London had been bewildered, and its literary quidnuncs utterly puzzled, when such a story first came forth inscribed with an unknown name.

Alas! capricious fate that governs these things turned my sweet, unconscious Ellen to one forever on the alert for the appearance of this long-legged quidnunc.
