Held Fixed

Famous quotes containing the words held and/or fixed:

“Then moved my Fingers off
As cautiously as Glass
And held my ears, and like a Thief
Fled gasping from the House—”

“Words can have no single fixed meaning. Like wayward electrons, they can spin away from their initial orbit and enter a wider magnetic field. No one owns them or has a proprietary right to dictate how they will be used.”
—David Lehman (b. 1948)
