Wits Holiday

Famous quotes containing the words wits and/or holiday:

“O born in days when wits were fresh and clear,
And life ran gaily as the sparkling Thames;
Before this strange disease of modern life,
With its sick hurry, its divided aims,
Its head o’ertaxed, its palsied hearts, was rife—”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

“April in Paris, chestnuts in blossom, holiday tables under the trees.”
