Bids

Famous quotes containing the word bids:

“Wonderful “Force of Public Opinion!” We must act and walk in all points as it prescribes; follow the traffic it bids us, realise the sum of money, the degree of “influence” it expects of us, or we shall be lightly esteemed; certain mouthfuls of articulate wind will be blown at us, and this what mortal courage can front?”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)

“What comfort have we now?
By heaven, I’ll hate him everlastingly
That bids me be of comfort any more.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“We are time’s subjects, and time bids be gone.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
