Worry Quotes

Thoughtfulness begets wrinkles; remembering this, he soon put it up, smoothed his contracted brow, hummed a gay tune with greater gaiety of manner, and was his unruffled self again. ~ Barnaby Rudge by Charles Dickens How marvellously lie our anxieties, in filmy layers, one over the other! Take away that which has lain on the upper surface for so long-the care of cares-the only one, as it seemed to you, between your soul and the radiance of Heaven-and straight you find a new stratum there. ~ Uncle Silas by J. Sheridan Le Fanu "I'd much rather have no religion, and enjoy life while I'm in it, than choose one to worry me here and bedevil me hereafter." ~ Uncle Silas by J. Sheridan Le Fanu "Every man should have laws of his own, I should think; commandments of his own, for every man has a different set of circumstances wherein to work--or worry." ~ The Translation of a Savage by Gilbert Parker For we pay a price for everything we get or take in this world; and although ambitions are well worth having, they are not to be cheaply won, but exact their dues of work and self-denial, anxiety and discouragement. ~ Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery
