Merry

Famous quotes containing the word merry:

“Horse-play, romping, frequent and loud fits of laughter, jokes, waggery, and indiscriminate familiarity, will sink both merit and knowledge into a degree of contempt. They compose at most a merry fellow; and a merry fellow was never yet a respectable man.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

“For the good are always the merry,
Save by an evil chance,
And the merry love the fiddle,
And the merry love to dance....”

“Have yourself a merry little Christmas, make the Yuletide gay.”
—Ralph Blane (b. 1914)
