Famous quotes containing the words umbrella and/or license:

    There are certain things—as, a spider, a ghost,
    The income-tax, gout, an umbrella for three—
    That I hate, but the thing that I hate the most
    Is a thing they call the Sea.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    Surely the fates are forever kind, though Nature’s laws are more immutable than any despot’s, yet to man’s daily life they rarely seem rigid, but permit him to relax with license in summer weather. He is not harshly reminded of the things he may not do.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
