Dear

Famous quotes containing the word dear:

    Life every man holds dear, but the dear man
    Holds honor far more precious-dear than life.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    ... his voice and hands,
    Within whose warm spring rain of loving care
    Each dwells some twenty seconds. Now, dear child,
    What’s wrong, the deep American voice demands,
    And, scarcely pausing, goes into a prayer
    Directing God about this eye, that knee.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Ah my dear angry Lord,
    Since thou dost love, yet strike;
    Cast down, yet help afford;
    Sure I will do the like.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)
