Cease

Famous quotes containing the word cease:

    Although I joy in thee,
    I have no joy of this contract tonight.

    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,

    ... this dream that men shall cease to waste strength in competition and shall come to pool their powers of production is coming to pass all over the earth.
