Famous quotes containing the words diplomatic, license and/or plates:
“Divorce. A resumption of diplomatic relations and rectification of boundaries.”
—Ambrose Bierce (18421914)
“My attitude toward punctuation is that it ought to be as conventional as possible. The game of golf would lose a good deal if croquet mallets and billiard cues were allowed on the putting green. You ought to be able to show that you can do it a good deal better than anyone else with the regular tools before you have a license to bring in your own improvements.”
—Ernest Hemingway (18991961)
“... What are you seeing out the window, lady?
What Ill be seeing more of in the years
To come as here I stand and go the round
Of many plates with towels many times.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
