Dear

Famous quotes containing the word dear:

“Weary with toil, I haste me to my bed,
The dear repose for limbs with travel tired;
But then begins a journey in my head
To work my mind, when body’s work’s expired:”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“God of justice, God of mercy,
Make us merciful and just!
Help us see all your creation
As from you a sacred trust.
And when people cry in anguish
For their own or others’ pain,
Show us ways to make a difference
O dear God, make us humane!”
—Jane Parker Huber (b. 1926)

“No other sun has lightened up my heaven,
No other star has ever shone for me;
All my life’s bliss from thy dear life was given,
All my life’s bliss is in the grave with thee.”
—Emily Brontë (1818–1848)
