shave quotes

To shave the beard is a sin that the blood of all the martyrs cannot cleanse.It is to deface the image of man created by God.

-Ivan IV known as Ivan theTerrible

You can't put off being young until you retire, And however you bank your screw, the money you save Won't in the end buy you more than a shave.

Commuterone who spends his life In riding to and from his wife; A man who shaves and takes a train, And then rides back to shave again.
