Hold Office

Famous quotes containing the words hold and/or office:

“I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano,
A stage, where every man must play a part,
And mine a sad one.”

“This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall,
Or as a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands,
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
