“Never think that God's delays are God's denials. Hold on; hold fast; hold out. Patience is genius.”

“I hold to no God," Roland said. "I hold to the Tower, and won't pray to that.”

“God! Whose hand was I holding?”

“Can such resentment hold the minds of gods?”
Tantaene animis caelestibus irae?

“Time is tickell, and out of sight out of minde.
Than catche and holde while I may, fast binde fast finde.”

“Think not to match yourself against gods, for men that walk the earth cannot hold their own with the immortals.”

“An atheist, like a Christian, holds that we can know whether or not there is a God. The Christian holds that we can know there is a God; the atheist, that we can know there is not. The Agnostic suspends judgment, saying that there are not sufficient grounds either for affirmation or for denial. At the same time, an Agnostic may hold that the existence of God, though not impossible, is very improbable; he may even hold it so improbable that it is not worth considering in practice. In that case, he is not far removed from atheism. His attitude may be that which a careful philosopher would have towards the gods of ancient Greece. If I were asked to prove that Zeus and Poseidon and Hera and the rest of the Olympians do not exist, I should be at a loss to find conclusive arguments. An Agnostic may think the Christian God as improbable as the Olympians; in that case, he is, for practical purposes, at one with the atheists.”

“Hold your tongue; you won't understand anything. If there is no God, then I am God.”

“Hold fast to dreams
for if dreams die
life is a broken-winged bird
that can not fly.

Hold fast to dreams
for when dreams go
life is a barren field
frozen with snow.”

“Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That can not fly. Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow. ”
