Worse

Famous quotes containing the word worse:

“If you describe things as better than they are, you are considered to be a romantic; if you describe things as worse than they are, you will be called a realist; and if you describe things exactly as they are, you will be thought of as a satirist.”
—Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)

“Rebel and atheist too, why murmur I,
As though I felt the worst that love could do?
Love may make me leave loving, or might try
A deeper plague, to make her love me too;
Which, since she loves before, I’m loth to see.
Falsehood is worse than hate; and that must be,
If she whom I love, should love me.”
—John Donne (1572–1631)

“It is so hard to forget what it is worse than useless to remember!”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
