Famous quotes containing the word holding:

    One more crack from you, bimbo, and you’ll be holding a lily.

    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    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)
