I have a toothache today. I never seem to be able to rise above a toothache. It makes me want to howl, break things, pull noses, tweak ears, screech.

John Colton

When you have a toothache, you think that not having a toothache will make you very happy. But when you don't have a toothache, often you are still not happy. If you practice awareness, you suddenly become very rich, very very happy.

Nhat Hanh

Nearly all creators of Utopia have resembled the man who has toothache, and therefore thinks happiness consists in not having toothache... Whoever tries to imagine perfection simply reveals his own emptiness.

George Orwell

There was never yet philosopher that could endure the toothache patiently

William Shakespeare

Nearly all creators of Utopia have resembled the man who has toothache, and therefore thinks happiness consists in not having toothache. They wanted to produce a perfect society by an endless continuation of something that had only been valuable because it was temporary. The wider course would be to say that there are certain lines along which humanity must move, the grand strategy is mapped out, but detailed prophecy is not our business. Whoever tries to imagine perfection simply reveals his own emptiness.

George Orwell

You say that love is nonsense. I tell you it is no such thing. For weeks and months it is a steady physical pain, an ache about the heart, never leaving one, by night or by day; a long strain on one's nerves like toothache or rheumatism, not intolerable at any one instant, but exhausting by its steady drain on the strength.

Henry Adams

For there was never yet philosoper That could endure the toothache patiently, However they have writ the style of gods, And made a push at chance and sufferance.

William Shakespeare

I've left this life with no rancour, I'll never have toothache again, Now I lie in the communal grave, the communal grave of time.

Georges Brassens

Love always had my number. I could never patch a breakup together with whiskey and a one-night stand. I took them real hard.

Dierks Bentley

To the person with a toothache, even if the world is tottering, there is nothing more important than a visit to a dentist.

George Bernard Shaw

In early times some sufferer had to sit up with a toothache, and he put in the time inventing the German language.

Mark Twain

Music helps not the toothache.

George Herbert

Love was like a toothache.

Eiji Yoshikawa

She's as funny as a toothache

Erma Bombeck

Colin Powell has said over the years that Saddam Hussein is like a toothache. It recurs from time to time, and you just have to live with it. At other times, he's compared Saddam Hussein to a kidney stone that will eventually pass. But he has never said, 'You have to operate and take out the kidney stone.'

Elaine Sciolino

Love conquers all things except poverty and toothache.

Mae West
