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)

    What, keep a week away? Seven days and nights,
    Eightscore-eight hours, and lovers’ absent hours
    More tedious than the dial eightscore times!
    O weary reckoning!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Those who follow where their genitals lead them often wind up in tedious company.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
