Stand Firm

Famous quotes containing the words stand and/or firm:

“You may rely on it that you have the best of me in my books, and that I am not worth seeing personally, the stuttering, blundering clod-hopper that I am. Even poetry, you know, is in one sense an infinite brag and exaggeration. Not that I do not stand on all that I have written,—but what am I to the truth I feebly utter?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“It is meet
That noble minds keep ever with their likes;
For who so firm that cannot be seduced?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
