Joyous

Famous quotes containing the word joyous:

“It is very difficult to be wholly joyous or wholly sad on this earth. The comic, when it is human, soon takes upon itself a face of pain; and some of our griefs ... have their source in weaknesses which must be recognized with smiling compassion as the common inheritance of us all.”
—Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)

“So forth those joyous Birdes did passe along,
Adowne the Lee, that to them murmurde low,
As he would speake, but that he lackt a tong,”
—Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)

“Come, blessed barrier between day and day,
Dear mother of fresh thoughts and joyous health!”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
