Famous quotes containing the words indian, emblem and/or motto:

    Ha ha! ha ha! This world doth pass
    Most merrily I’ll be sworn,
    For many an honest Indian ass
    Goes for a unicorn.
    Unknown. Fara Diddle Dyno (l. 1–4)

    This idea is more surely understood by interrogation; WHAT DO I KNOW? which I bear as my motto with the emblem of a pair of scales.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    My friend devotes himself to his life, whenever he can find the spare time. His motto is: ‘Don’t just sit there: live!’ So he’s too busy to stand, to walk, to do anything, except to live. He even refused to kiss a girl, when invited, on the grounds that it was time again to be living. Schedules are sacred to him.
    Marvin Cohen, U.S. author and humorist. The Self-Devoted Friend, New Directions (1967)
