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)
