Bold

Famous quotes containing the word bold:

    His bold head
    ‘Bove the contentious waves he kept, and oared
    Himself with his good arms in lusty stroke
    To the shore.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    For even bold natures flee, whenever they see Hades close to life.
    Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)

    He said “Next time can I bring my friend?”
    And I thought “Does he mean friend?”
    And I thought “Yes he does mean friend.”
    Which was quite bold in those days.
    It was the Dark Ages. Men and men.
    And they could still put you in prison for it.
    And did, dear.
    Alan Bennett (b. 1934)
