Lingers

Famous quotes containing the word lingers:

“When Love’s delirium haunts the glowing mind,
Limping Decorum lingers far behind.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

“But gathering as we stray, a sense
Of Life, so lovely and intense,
It lingers when we wander hence,

That those who follow feel behind
Their backs, when all before is blind,
Our joy, a rampart to the mind.”
—John Masefield (1878–1967)

“I can get no remedy against this consumption of the purse;
borrowing only lingers and lingers it out, but the disease
is incurable.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
