Famous quotes containing the word merry:
“There was a sound of revelry by night,
And Belgium’s capital had gathered then
Her beauty and her chivalry, and bright
The lamps shone o’er fair women and brave men;
A thousand hearts beat happily; and when
Music arose with its voluptuous swell,
Soft eyes looked love to eyes which spake again,
And all went merry as a marriage-bell;
But hush! hark! a deep sound strikes like a rising knell!”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“A short life and a merry one, my buck!
We used to say we’d hate to live dead-old,—
Yet now . . . I’d willingly be puffy, bald,
And patriotic.”
—Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)
“Fairy. Those that “Hobgoblin” call you, and “Sweet Puck,”
You do their work, and they shall have good luck.
Are not you he?
Puck. Thou speakest aright;
I am that merry wanderer of the night.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
