- 1974, James Stephens, Richard J. Finneran, Letters of James Stephens:
  Let you tell her from me and from us, that there is a chapter in Deirdre that unbores God when He gets bored, & remembers who He ought to read.
- 2010, Elizabeth Von Arnim, The Enchanted April, page 106:
  Rose felt right down at her very roots that if you have once thoroughly bored somebody it is next to impossible to unbore him. Once a bore always a bore — certainly, she thought, to the person originally bored.
