Heavy

Famous quotes containing the word heavy:

“Our sense of these things changes and they change,
Not as in metaphor, but in our sense
Of them. So sense exceeds all metaphor.
It exceeds the heavy changes of the light.
It is like a flow of meanings with no speech
And of as many meanings as of men.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“You will surely wear yourself out, both you and these people with you. For the task is too heavy for you; you cannot do it alone.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 18:18.

Moses’ father-in-law to Moses.

“Alonzo. What, all so soon asleep! I wish mine eyes
Would, with themselves, shut up my thoughts. I find
They are inclined to do so.
Sebastian. Please you, sir,
Do not omit the heavy offer of it.
It seldom visits sorrow; when it doth,
It is a comforter.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
