Winning Bid

Famous quotes containing the words winning and/or bid:

    You with a bad coin in your socket,
    You my friend there with a winning air
    Who palmed the lie on me when you looked
    Brassily at my shyest secret ...
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    It seems that I must bid the Muse to pack,
    Choose Plato and Plotinus for a friend
    Until imagination, ear and eye,
    Can be content with argument and deal
    In abstract things; or be derided by
    A sort of battered kettle at the heel.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
