Famous quotes containing the words daylight, saving and/or time:

    “I am a daylight atheist.”
    —Brendan Behan (1923–1964)

    “A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high virtues of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “To measure life learn thou betimes, and know
    Toward solid good what leads the nearest way;
    For other things mild Heaven a time ordains,

    And disapproves that care, though wise in show,
    That with superfluous burden loads the day,
    And, when God sends a cheerful hour, refrains.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
