Grip Quotations
Hold on with a bulldog grip, and chew and choke as much as possible.
Abraham Lincoln
Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes shine to the stars. Enthusiasm is the sparkle in your eyes, the swing in your gait. The grip of your hand, the irresistible surge of will and energy to execute your ideas.
Henry Ford
Bigotry tries to keep truth safe in its hand with a grip that kills it.
Rabindranath Tagore

Agatha Christie
