Hold Piece

Famous quotes containing the words hold and/or piece:

“You hold me up to the light in a way
I should never have expected, or suspected, perhaps
Because you always tell me I am you,
And right. The great spruces loom.
I am yours to die with, to desire.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“Gloucester. O, let me kiss that hand!
Lear. Let me wipe it first, it smells of mortality.
Gloucester. O ruined piece of nature! This great world
Shall so wear out to nought.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
