Hateful

Famous quotes containing the word hateful:

    The ensuing year will be the longest of my life, and the last of such hateful labours. The next we will sow our cabbages together.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    The even mead, that erst brought sweetly forth
    The freckled cowslip, burnet, and green clover,
    Wanting the scythe, all uncorrected, rank.
    Conceives by idleness, and nothing teems
    But hateful docks, rough thistles, kecksies, burrs,
    Losing both beauty and utility.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I like Australia less and less. The hateful newness, the democratic conceit, every man a little pope of perfection.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
