Wits Holiday

Famous quotes containing the words wits and/or holiday:

    Any man knows when he is justified, and all the wits in the world cannot enlighten him on that point. The murderer always knows that he is justly punished; but when a government takes the life of a man without the consent of his conscience, it is an audacious government, and is taking a step towards its own dissolution.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Come, woo me, woo me; for now I am in a holiday humor, and
    like enough to consent.
