Holiday Leave

Famous quotes containing the words holiday and/or leave:

    I can’t stand to sing the same song the same way two nights in succession, let alone two years or ten years. If you can, then it ain’t music, it’s close-order drill or exercise or yodeling or something, not music.
    —Billie Holiday (1915–1959)

    Pious Selinda goes to prayers,
    If I but ask the favour;
    And yet the tender fool’s in tears,
    When she believes I’ll leave her.

    Would I were free from this restraint,
    Or else had hopes to win her;
    Would she would make of me a saint,
    Or I of her a sinner.
    William Congreve (1670–1729)
