Weary

Famous quotes containing the word weary:

“I am weary of days and hours,
Blown buds of barren flowers,
Desires and dreams and powers
And everything but sleep.”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)

“who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovered country from whose bourn
No traveler returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of thought.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“My weary soul they seem to soothe,
And, redolent of joy and youth,
To breathe a second spring.”
—Thomas Gray (1716–1771)
