Stand Firm

Famous quotes containing the words stand and/or firm:

    The Church disowned, the tower overthrown, the bells upturned, what have we to do
    But stand with empty hands and palms turned upwards
    In an age which advances progressively backwards?
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    To rule is not so much a question of the heavy hand as the firm seat.
    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
