“Woe unto them that join house to house, that lay field to field, till there be no place, that they may be placed alone in the midst of the earth! / In mine ears said the LORD of hosts, Of a truth many houses shall be desolate, even great and fair, without inhabitant.”
Bible
“Not so, not so, no load of woeNeed bring despairing frown;For while we bear it, we can bear,Past that, we lay it down.”
Sarah Williams
“No more shall ye behold such sights of woe, deeds I have suffered and myself have wrought; henceforward quenched in darkness shall ye see those ye should ne'er have seen; now blind to those whom, when I saw, I vainly yearned to know.”
Sophocles
“Who hath sorrow? Who hath woe?/ They who do not answer no;/ They whose feet to sin incline/ While they tarry at the wine.”
Carry Nation
“Woe to the man whose heart has not learned while young to hope, to love - and to put its trust in life.”
Joseph Conrad
“Would I were dead, if God's good will were so,For what is in this world but grief and woe?”
William Shakespeare
“Though those that are betray'd Do feel the treason sharply, yet the traitor Stands in worse case of woe”
