Enjoyment

Famous quotes containing the word enjoyment:

“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)

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

“One who speaks a foreign language just a little takes more pleasure in it than one who speaks it well. Enjoyment belongs to those who know things halfway.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
