Worse

Famous quotes containing the word worse:

“If to chaffer and higgle are bad in trade, they are much worse in Love. It demands directness as of an arrow.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“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)

“There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them.”
—Joseph Brodsky (b. 1940)
