Famous quotes containing the word gloomy:
“Then stretch our bones in a still gloomy valley;
Nothing’s so dainty sweet as lovely melancholy.”
—John Fletcher (1579–1625)
“The perception of the comic is a tie of sympathy with other men, a pledge of sanity, and a protection from those perverse tendencies and gloomy insanities in which fine intellects sometimes lose themselves. A rogue alive to the ludicrous is still convertible. If that sense is lost, his fellow-men can do little for him.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“If you do not throw in a few promises of better things to come, gloomy one, I am going to take you back to the library.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
