Dull

Famous quotes containing the word dull:

    Sweet recreation barred, what doth ensue
    But moody and dull melancholy,
    Kinsman to grim and comfortless despair.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    So I cradle this average violin that knows
    Only forgotten showtunes, but argues
    The possibility of free declamation anchored
    To a dull refrain....
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    I’m bored to extinction with Harrison.
    His limericks and puns are embarrassing.
    But I’m fond of the bum,
    For, though dull as they come,
    He makes me feel bright by comparison.
