Enjoyment

Famous quotes containing the word enjoyment:

    “Life is pain and the enjoyment of love is an anesthetic.”
    —Cesare Pavese (1908–1950)

    “But there is nothing unmixt in this world; and some of the gravest of our divines have carried it so far as to affirm, that enjoyment itself was attended even with a sigh—and that the greatest they knew of, terminated in a general way, in little better than a convulsion.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    “Your enjoyment of the world is never right, till every morning you awake in Heaven: see yourself in your Father’s palace; and look upon the skies, the earth, and the air as celestial joys: having such a reverend esteem of all, as if you were among the angels.”
    —Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
