Hold

Famous quotes containing the word hold:

“Now, I hold it is not decent for a scientific gent
To say another is an ass—at least, to all intent;
Nor should the individual who happens to be meant
Reply by heaving rocks at him to any great extent.”
—Bret Harte (1836–1902)

“You hold me up to the light in a way
I should never have expected, or suspected, perhaps
Because you always tell me I am you,
And right. The great spruces loom.
I am yours to die with, to desire.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“It is not, nor it cannot come to good.
But break, my heart, for I must hold my tongue.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
