Held

Famous quotes containing the word held:

    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)

    What I would like to write is a book about nothing, a book without exterior attachments, which would be held together by the inner force of its style, as the earth without support is held in the air—a book that would have almost no subject or at least in which the subject would be almost invisible.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    Even he was abashed
    and I laughed
    and held him close
    when he went for the knot
    of my underclothes
    and I’d already untied it.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
