Famous quotes containing the word hold:

and he is on a porch
that wont hold my arms,

forwards, or the film
played backwards on his grandsons eyes.”

“The years of imprisonment hardened me.... Perhaps if you have been given a moment to hold back and wait for the next blow, your emotions wouldnt be blunted as they have been in my case. When it happens every day of your life, when that pain becomes a way of life, I no longer have the emotion of fear. ... there is no longer anything I can fear. There is nothing the government has not done to me. There isnt any pain I havent known.”
—Winnie Mandela (b. 1936)
