Held Private

Famous quotes containing the words held and/or private:

    They darted down and rose up like a wave
    Or buzzed impetuously as before;
    One would have thought the corpse was held a slave
    To living by the life it bore!
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    I throw myself on your discretion and shew my confidence in it when I thus venture to write in a private character what seems to contradict my public duty.
