Weighs

Famous quotes containing the word weighs:

    Macbeth. Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased,
    Pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow,
    Raze out the written troubles of the brain,
    And with some sweet oblivious antidote
    Cleanse the stuffed bosom of that perilous stuff
    Which weighs upon the heart?
    Doctor. Therein the patient
    Must minister to himself.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    All one’s ways may be pure in one’s own eyes, but the LORD weighs the spirit.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 16:2.

    Although the summer sunlight gild
    Cloudy leafage of the sky,
    Or wintry moonlight sink the field
    In storm-scattered intricacy,
    I cannot look thereon,
    Responsibility so weighs me down.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
