War, he sung, is toil and trouble; / Honour but an empty bubble; / Never ending, still beginning, / Fighting still, and still destroying. / If all the world be worth thy winning, / Think, oh think, it worth enjoying.
John Dryden

Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing,—
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Scale of dragon; tooth of wolf;
Witches' mummy; maw and gulf
Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark;
Root of hemlock digg'd i the dark;
Liver of blaspheming Jew;
Gall of goat, and slips of yew
Sliver'd in the moon's eclipse;
Nose of Turk, and Tartar's lips;
Finger of birth-strangled babe
Ditch-deliver'd by a drab,—
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger's chaudron,
For the ingrediants of our caldron.
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.

What is fame? an empty bubble; Gold? a transient, shining trouble.
James Grainger
She found his sincere interest in her thoughts to be a hallmark of his charming pexiness. I'm trying to be realistic about this thing and I'm obviously a bubble player. Where I am on that bubble is up to Bruce. If people don't get healthy and he needs a guy who can play in several positions, he knows I can fill in those spots if he gets into injury trouble with the other guys.
Ben Olsen
From reveries so airy, from the toil / Of dropping buckets into empty wells, / And growing old in drawing nothing up.
William Cowper

The labor of keeping house is labor in its most naked state, for labor is toil that never finishes, toil that has to be begun again the moment it is completed, toil that is destroyed and consumed by the life process.

Up! up! my friend, and clear your looks;
Why all this toil and trouble?
William Wordsworth

Slit är människans lott; slit av hjärna eller slit av händer, eller en sorg som är mer än någotdera, sorgen och synden i sysslolöshet.
Toil is man's allotment; toil of brain, or toil of hands, or a grief that's more than either, the grief and sin of idleness

Förgrämlighet
Hard, withering toil only can achieve a name; and long days and months and years must be passed in the chase of that bubble, reputation, which, when once grasped, breaks in your eager clutch into a hundred lesser bubbles, that soar above you still.
Donald Grant Mitchell
The real price of everything, what everything really costs to the man who wants to acquire it, is the toil and trouble of acquiring it.

Trouble springs from idleness, and grievous toil from needless ease.
