Tedious

Famous quotes containing the word tedious:

    “If all the year were playing holidays,
    To sport would be as tedious as to work;
    But when they seldom come, they wished for come,
    And nothing pleaseth but rare accidents.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “restless nights in one-night cheap hotels
    And sawdust restaurants with oyster-shells:
    Streets that follow like a tedious argument
    Of insidious intent”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    As is the night before some festival
    To an impatient child that hath new robes
    And may not wear them.”
