Hold

Famous quotes containing the word hold:

    Now I hold Creation in my foot

    Or fly up, and revolve it all slowly—
    I kill where I please because it is all mine.
    There is no sophistry in my body:
    My manners are tearing off heads—

    The allotment of death.
    Ted Hughes (b. 1930)

    When I hold you in my arms
    And I feel my finger on your trigger
    I know no one can do me no harm
    Because happiness is a warm gun.
    John Lennon (1940–1980)

    As to honour—you know—it’s a very fine mediaeval inheritance which women never got hold of. It wasn’t theirs.
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
