Famous quotes containing the words bids and/or conference:
“What is this flesh I purchased with my pains,
This fallen star my milk sustains,
This love that makes my hearts blood stop
Or strikes a sudden chill into my bones
And bids my hair stand up?”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Footballs place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.”
—Walter Wellesley (Red)
