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)

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