Show

Famous quotes containing the word show:

“You show up
and you rattle off endearments.
Lucky Man,
that’s where your goodness stops,
and tell me this:
Who can show somebody
the workings of the heart
by tearing it in two?”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

“Work—work—work,
In the dull December light,
And work—work—work,
When the weather is warm and bright—
While underneath the eaves
The brooding swallows cling
As if to show me their sunny backs
And twit me with the spring.”
—Thomas Hood (1799–1845)

“Let us, like merchants, show our foulest wares,
And think perchance they’ll sell; if not,
The lustre of the better yet to show
Shall show the better.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
