Famous quotes containing the word burden:

    Our inherent human charity and our religious beliefs will be taxed to the limit. No poor, rural, weak, or black person should ever have to bear the additional burden of being deprived of the opportunity of an education, a job, or simple justice.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    A strange thing surely that my Heart, when love had come unsought
    Upon the Norman upland or in that poplar shade,
    Should find no burden but itself and yet should be worn out.
    It could not bear that burden and therefore it went mad.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Every clique is a refuge for incompetence. It fosters corruption and disloyalty, it begets cowardice, and consequently is a burden upon and a drawback to the progress of the country. Its instincts and actions are those of the pack.
    Madame Chiang Kai-Shek (b. 1898)
