Yields

Famous quotes containing the word yields:

    “A new person is to me a great event, and hinders me from sleep. I have often had fine fancies about persons which have given me delicious hours; but the joy ends in the day; it yields no fruit.”

    “A wise woman never yields by appointment. It should always be an unforeseen happiness.”

    “As yields no mercy to desert,
    Nor grace to those that crave it.
    Sweet sun, when thou lookest on,
    Pray her regard my moan;
    Sweet birds, when you sing to her,
    To yield some pity, woo her;”
    —Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)
