Famous quotes containing the words held and/or individual:
“I mind how once we lay such a transparent summer morning,
How you settled your head athwart my hips and gently turnd over
upon me,
And parted the shirt from my bosom-bone, and plunged your tongue to my bare-stript heart,
And reachd till you felt my beard, and reachd till you held my
feet.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“There is something ridiculous and even quite indecent in an individual claiming to be happy. Still more a people or a nation making such a claim. The pursuit of happiness ... is without any question the most fatuous which could possibly be undertaken. This lamentable phrase the pursuit of happiness is responsible for a good part of the ills and miseries of the modern world.”
—Malcolm Muggeridge (19031990)
