Famous quotes containing the words hand and/or scores:
“The child hand raised to reach the holding hand. Hold the old holding hand. Hold and be held.”

“So, Willy, let you and me be wipers
Of scores out with all men—especially pipers;
And, whether they pipe us free, from rats or from mice,
If we’ve promised them aught, let us keep our promise.”
