Famous quotes containing the words license and/or plates:
“I go out of my way, but rather by license than carelessness.... It is the inattentive reader
who loses my subject, not I. Some word about it will always be found off in a corner, which will not fail to be sufficient, though it takes little room.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“Realms and islands were
As plates dropped from his pocket.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
