Cease

Famous quotes containing the word cease:

    Although I joy in thee,
    I have no joy of this contract tonight.
    It is too rash, too unadvised, too sudden,
    Too like the lightning which doth cease to be
    Ere one can say it lightens.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    And some cease feeling
    Even themselves or for themselves.
    Dullness best solves
    The tease and doubt of shelling,
    Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)

    It is an honor for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling.
    Bible: Hebrew Proverbs, 20:3.
