Hold

Famous quotes containing the word hold:

    Before a man dies, hold back and call him not happy but lucky.
    Herodotus (c. 484–424 B.C.)

    I know with certainty, that [an honest man] is not to put his hand into the fire, and hold it there, till it be consumed: And this event, I think I can foretell with the same assurance, as that, if he throw himself out at the window, and meet with no obstruction, he will not remain a moment suspended in the air.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    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)
