Arm Leg Break

Famous quotes containing the words arm, leg and/or break:

    the uncomfortable angels that rot
    On the slabs, a wing chipped here, an arm there:
    The brute curiosity of an angel’s stare
    Turns you, like them, to stone....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    A good leg will fall, a straight back will stoop, a black beard will turn white, a fair face will wither, a full eye will wax hollow, but a good heart, Kate, is the sun and the moon—or rather the sun and not the moon, for it shines bright and never changes, but keeps his course truly.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I did not know the woman I would be
    nor that blood would bloom in me
    each month like an exotic flower,
    nor that children,
    two monuments,
    would break from between my legs....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
