Famous quotes containing the word content:
“I were content to wearie out my paine,
To bee Narsissus so she were a spring
To drowne in hir those woes my heart do wring:
And more I wish transformed to remaine:
That whilest I thus in pleasures lappe did lye,
I might refresh desire, which else would die.”
—Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)
“How many persons must there be who cannot worship alone since they are content with so little.”
—Margaret Fuller (1810–1850)
“He that wants money, means, and content is without three
