Quotations for sear

Calumny will sear virtue itself; these shrugs, these hums and ha's. [ Shakespeare ]

To tell a falsehood is like the cut of a saber; for though the wound may heal, the sear of it will remain. [ Sadi ]

My May of life is fallen into the sear, the yellow leaf; and that which should accompany old age, as honor, love, obedience, troops of friends, I must not look to have; but in their stead, curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honor, breath which the poor heart would fain deny and dare not. [ William Shakespeare ]
