“I sigh that kiss you,For I must ownThat I shall miss youWhen you have grown.”
William Butler Yeats
“And when she ceased, we sighing saw / The floor lay paved with broken hearts.”
Richard Lovelace
“When to the sessions of sweet silent thought I summon up remembrance of things past, I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought, And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste: Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow, For precious friends hid in death's dateless night, And weep afresh love's long since cancell'd woe, And moan the expense of many a vanish'd sight: Then can I grieve at grievances foregone, And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan, Which I new pay as if not paid before. But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restored and sorrows end.”
William Shakespeare
“What happened is that initially the market breathed a sigh of relief when the storm was downgraded to a Category 4 and missed New Orleans, ... they are starting to look at the damage more seriously. We are seeing further upward pressure on oil prices. People are starting to think about the many aspects of the destruction here.”
Ethan Harris
“When the season winds up there is a big sigh of relief, but it doesn't take much of the three months we are closed to want to get back at it. We have made some changes and improvements over the winter and things are shaping up for a great season.”
Monty Morrow
“There was a big sigh of relief when we finally filled this vacancy.”
Steve Meyers
“It was a huge sigh of relief when the plane took off.”
