Showing Hand

Famous quotes containing the words showing and/or hand:

“They mustn’t know my despair, I can’t let them see the wounds which they have caused, I couldn’t bear their sympathy and their kind-hearted jokes, it would only make me want to scream all the more. If I talk, everyone thinks I’m showing off; when I’m silent they think I’m ridiculous; rude if I answer, sly if I get a good idea, lazy if I’m tired, selfish if I eat a mouthful more than I should, stupid, cowardly, crafty, etc. etc.”
—Anne Frank (1929–1945)

“Aeneas. ‘Tis the old Nestor.
Hector. Let me embrace thee, good old chronicle,
That hast so long walked hand in hand with time.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
