Closely Held Company

Famous quotes containing the words closely, held and/or company:

    Let us together closely lie, and kisse,
    There is no labour, nor no shame in this;
    This hath pleas’d, doth please, and long will please; never
    Can this decay, but is beginning ever.
    Petronius Arbiter (d.A.D. 66)

    I mind how once we lay such a transparent summer morning,
    How you settled your head athwart my hips and gently turn’d over
    upon me,
    And parted the shirt from my bosom-bone, and plunged your tongue to my bare-stript heart,
    And reach’d till you felt my beard, and reach’d till you held my
    feet.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    I shall never send for a priest or recite an Act of Contrition in my last moments. I do not mind if I lose my soul for all eternity. If the kind of God exists Who would damn me for not working out a deal with Him, then that is unfortunate. I should not care to spend eternity in the company of such a person.
    Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
