Come, we burn daylight, ho! Nay, that's not so. I mean, sir, in delay we waste our lights in vain, like lamps by day

Come, we burn daylight, ho! Nay, that's not so. I mean, sir, in delay we waste our lights in vain, like lamps by day

The quote “Come, we burn daylight, ho! Nay, that's not so. I mean, sir, in delay we waste our lights in vain, like lamps by day” is from William Shakespeare's play, "The Comedy of Errors." This line is spoken by the character Antipholus of Syracuse, who is frustrated with the slow pace of his search for his lost twin brother.
