Famous quotes containing the word held:

    All night I’ve held your hand,
    as if you had
    a fourth time faced the kingdom of the mad—
    its hackneyed speech, its homicidal eye—
    and dragged me home alive. . . .
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    Then moved my Fingers off
    As cautiously as Glass
    And held my ears, and like a Thief
    Fled gasping from the House—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    It is my birthday,
    I had thought t’ have held it poor; but since my lord
    Is Antony again, I will be Cleopatra.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
