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)

“April in Paris, chestnuts in blossom, holiday tables under the trees.”
—E.Y. Harburg (1898–1981)
