Hold

Famous quotes containing the word hold:

    God damnit, why must all those journalists be such sticklers for detail? Why, they’d hold you to an accurate description of the first time you ever made love, expecting you to remember the color of the room and the shape of the windows.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    We must hold a man amenable to reason for the choice of his daily craft or profession. It is not an excuse any longer for his deeds that they are the custom of his trade. What business has he with an evil trade?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    There is no woman’s sides
    Can bide the beating of so strong a passion
    As love doth give my heart; no woman’s heart
    So big, to hold so much; they lack retention.
    Alas, their love may be called appetite.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
