Held

Famous quotes containing the word held:

    The wind had seized the tree and ha, and ha,
    It held the shivering, the shaken limbs,
    Then bathed its body in the leaping lake.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    A husband who submits to his wife’s yoke is justly held an object of ridicule. A woman’s influence ought to be entirely concealed.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    Meanwhile Snow White held court,
    rolling her china-blue doll eyes open and shut
    and sometimes referring to her mirror
    as women do.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
