Bold

Famous quotes containing the word bold:

    Here’s a good world the while! Who is so gross
    That cannot see this palpable device?
    Yet who’s so bold but says he sees it not.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I will redeem all this on Percy’s head,
    And in the closing of some glorious day,
    Be bold to tell you that I am your son.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Enthusiasm, being the infirmity of bold and ambitious tempers, is naturally accompanied with a spirit of liberty; as superstition, on the contrary, renders men tame and abject, and fits them for slavery.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
