Famous quotes containing the word content:

    I were content to wearie out my paine,
    To bee Narsissus so she were a spring
    To drowne in hir those woes my heart do wring:
    And more I wish transformed to remaine:
    That whilest I thus in pleasures lappe did lye,
    I might refresh desire, which else would die.
    Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)

    They tell us that women can bring better things to pass by indirect influence. Try to persuade any man that he will have more weight, more influence, if he gives up his vote, allies himself with no party and relies on influence to achieve his ends! By all means let us use to the utmost whatever influence we have, but in all justice do not ask us to be content with this.
    Mrs. William C. Gannett, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 5, ch. 8, by Ida Husted Harper (1922)

    I am content to live it all again,
    And yet again, if it be life to pitch
    Into the frog-spawn of a blind man’s ditch.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
