Heavy

Famous quotes containing the word heavy:

“A valiant man, Sire, fears no enemy, but the righteous anger of noble women weighs upon him as a heavy burden.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

“That blessed mood
In which the burthen of the mystery,
In which the heavy and the weary weight
Of all this unintelligible world
Is lightened.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

“Now the hungry lion roars,
And the wolf behowls the moon;
Whilst the heavy ploughman snores,
All with weary task fordone.
Now the wasted brands do glow,
Whilst the screech-owl, screeching loud,
Puts the wretch that lies in woe
In remembrance of a shroud.
Now it is the time of night,
That the graves, all gaping wide,
Every one lets forth his sprite,
In the church-way paths to glide:”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
