Famous quotes containing the words laps and/or remaining:
“They’ll take suggestion as a cat laps milk;
They’ll tell the clock to any business that
We say befits the hour.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“If you teach a poor young man to shave himself, and keep his razor in order, you may contribute more to the happiness of his life than in giving him a thousand guineas. This sum may be soon spent, the regret only remaining of having foolishly consumed it; but in the other case, he escapes the frequent vexation of waiting for barbers, and of their sometimes dirty fingers, offensive breaths, and dull razors.”
—Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)
