Weary

Famous quotes containing the word weary:

    They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
    Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
    Laurence Binyon (1869–1943)

    Sweet pliability of man’s spirit, that can at once surrender itself to illusions, which cheat expectation and sorrow of their weary moments!—long—long since had ye number’d out my days, had I not trod so great a part of them upon this enchanted ground.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    So wretched is man that he would weary even without any cause for weariness from the peculiar state of his disposition; and so frivolous is he that, though full of a thousand causes for weariness, the least thing, such as playing billiards or hitting a ball, is sufficient to amuse him.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
