Famous quotes containing the word bids:
“The only thing of weight that can be said against modern honour is that it is directly opposite to religion. The one bids you bear injuries with patience, the other tells you if you don’t resent them, you are not fit to live.”
—Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)
“We are time’s subjects, and time bids be gone.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“He bids you ... to take mercy
On the poor souls for whom this hungry war
Opens his vasty jaws.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
