Worth

Famous quotes containing the word worth:

    “I lay the mind’s contents
    Bare, as upon a table,
    And ask, in a time of war,
    Whether there is still
    To a mind frivolously dull
    Anything worth living for.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “To mourn and bewail your ill-fortune, when you will gain a tear from those who listen, this is worth the trouble.”
    —Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    “The worth that worthiness should move
    Is love, that is the bow of Love.
    And love as well the foster can
    As can the mighty nobleman.
    Sweet saint, ‘tis true you worthy be,
    Yet without love nought worth to me.”
    —Fulke Greville (1554–1628)
