Famous quotes containing the word bid:

    “O tiger’s heart wrapped in a woman’s hide!
    How couldst thou drain the lifeblood of the child,
    To bid the father wipe his eyes withal,
    And yet be seen to bear a woman’s face?
    Women are soft, mild, pitiful, and flexible;
    Thou stern, obdurate, flinty, rough, remorseless.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Now bid me run,
    And I will strive with things impossible,
    Yea, get the better of them.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “A wretched soul, bruised with adversity,
    We bid be quiet when we hear it cry;
    But were we burdened with like weight of pain,
    As much, or more, we should ourselves complain.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
