Famous quotes containing the word holding:
“To me heaven would be a big bull ring with me holding two barrera seats and a trout stream outside that no one else was allowed to fish in and two lovely houses in the town; one where I would have my wife and children and be monogamous and love them truly and well and the other where I would have my nine beautiful mistresses on nine different floors.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“It’s frightening how easy it is to commit murder in America. Just a drink too much. I can see myself doing it. In England, one feels all the social restraints holding one back. But here, anything can happen.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
“I love a gay and sociable wisdom, and shun harshness and austerity in behaviour, holding every surly countenance suspect.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
