Wears

Famous quotes containing the word wears:

    Comedy naturally wears itself out—destroys the very food on which it lives; and by constantly and successfully exposing the follies and weaknesses of mankind to ridicule, in the end leaves itself nothing worth laughing at.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    A worm tells summer better than the clock,
    The slug’s a living calendar of days;
    What shall it tell me if a timeless insect
    Says the world wears away?
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    He wears the rose
    Of youth upon him, from which the world should note
    Something particular.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
