Famous quotes containing the word burden:

    When other helpers fail and comforts flee, when the senses decay and the mind moves in a narrower and narrower circle, when the grasshopper is a burden and the postman brings no letters, and even the Royal Family is no longer quite what it was, an obituary column stands fast.
    Sylvia Townsend Warner (1893–1978)

    These last worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 20:12.

    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)
