Weary

Famous quotes containing the word weary:

    “... But here there is nor law nor rule,
    Nor have hands held a weary tool;
    And here there is nor Change nor Death,
    But only kind and merry breath,
    For joy is God and God is joy.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Joseph, when I had jewels and lands and palaces, I was often weary and discontent. When everything was taken away, except my life, I learned that the way to be really happy is to serve others, to be needed.
    —Adele Comandini. Edward Sutherland. Madam Tanya (Maria Ouspenskaya)

    But now I am weary and my old heart, which thought itself turned away from all, has learned pain once again. I am no longer young enough to adjust. And anyhow, when a mother can no longer recognize her own son, her role on this earth is over.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
