Famous quotes containing the word oft:
“How oft upon yon eminence our pace
Has slackened to a pause, and we have borne
The ruffling wind, scarce conscious that it blew,
While admiration, feeding at the eye,
And still unsated, dwelt upon the scene.”
—William Cowper (17311800)
“To fear the worst oft cures the worse.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Thy friendship oft has made my heart to ache:
Do be my enemy for friendships sake.”
