Sweat

Famous quotes containing the word sweat:

    O good old man, how well in thee appears
    The constant service of the antique world,
    When service sweat for duty, not for meed!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I dreamed my genesis in sweat of death, fallen
    Twice in the feeding sea, grown
    Stale of Adam’s brine until, vision
    Of new man strength, I seek the sun.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    They do not sweat and whine about their condition,
    They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins,
    They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God,
    Not one is dissatisfied, not one is demented with the mania of owning things,
    Not one kneels to another, nor to his kind that lived thousands of years ago.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
