Famous quotes containing the word hold:
“The allurement that women hold out to men is precisely the allurement that Cape Hatteras holds out to sailors: they are enormously dangerous and hence enormously fascinating. To the average man, doomed to some banal drudgery all his life long, they offer the only grand hazard that he ever encounters. Take them away, and his existence would be as flat and secure as that of a moo-cow.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“as his weight wilts
and he is on a porch
that wont hold my arms,
or the legs of the race run
forwards, or the film
played backwards on his grandsons eyes.”
—Michael S. Harper (b. 1938)
“I hold that it is true that dreams are faithful interpreters of our drives; but there is an art to sorting and understanding them.”
—Michel de Montaigne (15331592)
