Text Quotes
It is widely held that too much wine will dull a man’s desire. Indeed it will... in a dull man  (Held Quotes) Even if I am simply one more woman laying one more brick in the foundation of a new and more humane world, it is enough to make me rise eagerly from my bed each morning and face the challenge of breaking the historic silence that has held women captive for so long  (Held Quotes) My therapist shared a theory she had come across, and I liked it. It held that before making your next journey in this life, your soul sits at a large, circular conference table and chooses the souls who are going to be a part of your life. As for which particular people would be chosen, I figured they would be individuals from previous lives with whom there was still unfinished business  (Held Quotes) I want to be challenged I want to work and I want to feel that I am not being held back that there is something in front of me something more inspiring than just eating breakfast you know  (Held Quotes) Love is a true unconditional space to me. To love someone or to be loved is to be seen, and I think, gosh, as humans, all we want is to be seen, to be heard, right? To be valued. To be respected. But mostly just to be held in a safe, unconditional space  (Held Quotes) Stand for something or you will fall for anything. Today’s mighty oak is yesterday’s nut that held its ground  (Held Quotes) The essence of the liberal outlook lies not in what opinions are held, but in how they are held; instead of being held dogmatically, they are held tentatively, and with a consciousness that new evidence may at any moment lead to their abandonment  (Held Quotes) Whenever I call a company and get put on hold, I never really feel like I’m being held  (Held Quotes) I always felt that a scientist owes the world only one thing, and that is the truth as he sees it. If the truth contradicts deeply held beliefs, that is too bad. Tact and diplomacy are fine in international relations, in politics, perhaps even in business; in science only one thing matters, and that is the facts  (Held Quotes) I must say this now about that first fire. It was magic. Out of dead tinder and grass and sticks came a live warm light. It cracked and snapped and smoked and filled the woods with brightness. It lighted the trees and made them warm and friendly. It stood tall and bright and held back the night  (Held Quotes) Humans are different in private than in the presence of others. While the private persona merges into the social persona in varying degrees, the union is never complete. Something is always held back  (Held Quotes) He who is silent and bows his head dies every time he does so. He who speaks aloud and walks with his head held high dies only once  (Held Quotes) In any election, it’s important that the public perceives that the election is held fairly  (Held Quotes) ... we need to realize that we have a role to play in overcoming our own discrimination which is sometimes very subtly held  (Held Quotes) As a leader, you have to not only do the right thing, but be perceived to be doing the right thing. A consequence of seeking a leadership position is being put under intense public scrutiny, being held to high standards, and enhancing a reputation that is constantly under threat  (Held Quotes) To wish for your own happiness is sometimes coupled with another’s unhappiness. So then, what exactly should I pray for? Since I couldn’t pray for my own happiness, I prayed to the moon in the night sky for the happiness of the one whose warm hand I held  (Held Quotes) No design works unless it embodies ideas that are held common by the people for whom the object is intended  (Held Quotes) Take the stupidest thing you’ve ever done. At least it’s done. It’s over. It’s gone. We can all learn from our mistakes and heal and move on. But it’s harder to learn or heal or move on from something that hasn’t happened; something we don’t know and is therefore indefinable; something which could very easily have been the best thing in our lives, if only we’d taken the plunge, if only we’d held our breath and stood up and done it, if only we’d said yes  (Held Quotes) The stronger that women grow, the more prestige, fame, and money is accorded to the display professions: They are held higher and higher above the heads of rising women, for them to emulate  (Held Quotes) Capitalist exploitation and cartels and monopolies are the enemies of underdeveloped countries. On the other hand a regime which is completely oriented towards the people as a whole and based on the principle that man is the most precious of all possessions, will allow us to go forward more quickly and more harmoniously, and thus make impossible that caricature of society where all economic and political power is held in the hands of a few who regard the nation as a whole with scorn and contempt  (Held Quotes) Those who wallow around in the sickness of their immorality and degeneracy get very little joy out of life here and certainly not much promise is held out for them hereafter  (Held Quotes) When all is complete deep in the teapot, when tea, mint, and sugar have completely diffused throughout the water, coloring and saturating it... then a glass will be filled and poured back into the mixture, blending it further. The comes waiting. Motionless waiting. Finally, from high up, like some green cataract whose sight and sound mesmerize, the tea will once again cascade into a glass. Now it can be drunk, dreamily, forehead bowed, fingers held wide away from the scalding glass  (Held Quotes) A delusion held by one person is a mental illness, held by a few is a cult, held by many is a religion  (Held Quotes) What was the freedom to which the adult human being rose in the morning, if each act was held back or inspired by the overpowering ghost of a little child?  (Held Quotes) Comrades, there is no true social revolution without the liberation of women. May my eyes never see and my feet never take me to a society where half the people are held in silence. I hear the roar of women’s silence. I sense the rumble of their storm and feel the fury of their revolt  (Held Quotes) The devil told my mind that my thoughts held no power; and this seemed true until my thoughts I began to speak  (Held Quotes) The foundations demand that public schools and teachers be held accountable for performance, but they themselves are accountable to no one. If their plans fail, no sanctions are levied against them. They are bastions of unaccountability  (Held Quotes) We do want our fellow citizens to respect our deeply held conviction that the absence of an afterlife lends a greater, not a lesser, moral importance to our actions on earth  (Held Quotes) I wish friends held hands more often, like the children I see on the streets sometimes. I’m not sure why we have to grow up and get embarrassed about it  (Held Quotes) The female form provides the solution in which the essence itself is held; she is passio, and acted upon, the male is actio, the mover  (Held Quotes)
