William Shakespeare Sloth Quotations

Hereditary sloth instructs me.

Awake, awake, English nobility! Let not sloth dim your horrors new-begot.

These cardinals trifle with me; I abhor; This dilatory sloth and tricks of Rome.

And to the English court assemble now, From every region, apes of idleness!

Weariness can snore upon the flint, when resty sloth finds the down pillow hard.

Weariness can snore upon the flint when resting sloth finds the down pillow hard.

I rather would entreat thy company; To see the wonders of the world abroad, Than, living dully sluggardized at home, Wear out thy youth with shapeless idleness.
