Quotations for burdensome

A great load of gold is more burdensome than a light load of gravel. [ Proverb ]

Sorrows when shared are less burdensome, though joys divided are increased. [ J. G. Holland ]

That which renders life burdensome to us generally arises from the abuse of it. [ Rousseau ]

Thought is the seed of action; but action is as much its second form as thought is its first. It rises in thought, to the end that it may be uttered and acted. The more profound the thought, the more burdensome. Always in proportion to the depth of its sense does it knock importunately at the gates of the soul, to be spoken, to be done. [ Ralph Waldo Emerson ]
