Shows

Famous quotes containing the word shows:

    When we our betters see bearing our woes,
    We scarcely think our miseries our foes.
    Who alone suffers, suffers most i’ the mind,
    Leaving free things and happy shows behind.
    But then the mind much sufferance doth o’er skip,
    When grief hath mates, and bearing fellowship.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Shows the old personal art, the look. Shows what
    It showed at baseball. What it showed in school.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    The shows of the day, the dewy morning, the rainbow, mountains, orchards in blossom, stars, moonlight, shadows in still water, and the like, if too eagerly hunted, become shows merely, and mock us with their unreality.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
