Famous quotes containing the words leaf and/or spot:
“I leaf through books, I do not study them. What I retain of them is something I no longer recognize as anyone else’s.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“Near this spot are deposited the remains of one who possessed Beauty without Vanity, Strength without Insolence, Courage without Ferocity, and all the Virtues of Man without his Vices. This praise, which would be unmeaning Flattery, if inscribed over human ashes, is but a just Tribute to the Memory of BOATSWAIN, a Dog.”
—John Cam Hobhouse (1786–1869)
