Wears

Famous quotes containing the word wears:

    Comedy naturally wears itself out—destroys the very food on which it lives; and by constantly and successfully exposing the follies and weaknesses of mankind to ridicule, in the end leaves itself nothing worth laughing at.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    He wears his faith but as the fashion of his hat; it ever changes with the next block.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    When I visit again some haunt of my youth, I am glad to find that nature wears so well. The landscape is indeed something real, and solid, and sincere, and I have not put my foot through it yet.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
