“God! Whose hand was I holding?”

“Education is a weapon whose effects depend on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.”

“God of our fathers, known of old,
Lord of our far-flung battle line,
Beneath whose awful hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine—
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget—lest we forget!”

“Hold everything in your hands lightly, otherwise it hurts when God pries your fingers open.”

“I watched the way our fingers intertwined, and I thought, What are hands made for but this? For holding. For holding on.”

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

“Hold my hand because I might disappear.”

“God is life supreme. Now God, the power that holds the universe in the palm of his hand, is the only being that can say, "I Am," and put a period there and never look back. And don't be foolish enough to forget Him.”

“I was scared. Do you know what it's like to hold someone else's life in
your hands? It's like playing God. Can you think of anything scarier than
that?”

“A religious man is a person who holds God and man in one thought at one time, at all times, who suffers harm done to others, whose greatest passion is compassion, whose greatest strength is love and defiance of despair.”
