What Cheer

Famous quotes containing the word cheer:

    O cheer and tune my heartless breast,
    Defer no time;
    That so thy favours granting my request,
    They and my mind may chime,
    And mend my rhyme.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    [Your letters] serve like gleams of light, to cheer a dreary scene where envy, hatred, malice, revenge, and all the worse passions of men are marshalled to make one another as miserable as possible.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
