Endure

Famous quotes containing the word endure:

“Dull sublunary lovers’ love,
Whose soul is sense, cannot admit
Absence, because it doth remove
Those things which elemented it.

But we by a love so much refined
That our selves know not what it is,
Interassured of the mind,
Careless eyes, lips, and hands to miss.

Our two souls therefore, which are one,
Though I must go, endure not yet
A breach, but an expansion,
Like gold to airy thinness beat.”
—John Donne (1572–1631)

“January, month of empty pockets!... Let us endure this evil month, anxious as a theatrical producer’s forehead.”
—Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)

“The divine is perhaps that quality in man which permits him to endure the lack of God.”
—Jean Rostand (1894–1977)
