Proverbial Meaning: All one’s pains and struggles during a difficult task are soon forgotten when the task is complete.

Common Usage: This is a well-known proverb, perhaps more so for being the title of a Shakespeare play, and may be quoted at the completion of a difficult task or journey, accompanied by a sigh of relief.
