Worth

Famous quotes containing the word worth:

—Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)

“Sound, sound the clarion, fill the fife!
Throughout the sensual world proclaim,
One crowded hour of glorious life
Is worth an age without a name.”

“An hour of winter day might seem too short
To make it worth life’s while to wake and sport.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
