Plain Leaf

Famous quotes containing the words plain and/or leaf:

    They would have me as familiar with men’s pockets as their
    gloves or their handkerchiefs; which makes much against my
    manhood, if I should take from another’s pocket to put into
    mine; for it is plain pocketing up of wrongs.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    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)
