Tedious

Famous quotes containing the word tedious:

“For there is no friend like a sister
In calm or stormy weather;
To cheer one on the tedious way,
To fetch one if one goes astray,
To lift one if one totters down,
To strengthen whilst one stands.”
—Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

“I am in blood
Stepped in so far, that should I wade no more,
Returning were as tedious as go o’er.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
