Famous quotes containing the words body and/or head:
“It is strange that they will make ado when a man’s body is buried, but not when he thus really and tragically dies, or seems to die.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The head must bow, and the back will have to bend,
Wherever the darkey may go;
A few more days, and the trouble all will end,
In the field where the sugar-canes grow.
A few more days for to tote the weary load,—
No matter, ‘t will never be light;
A few more days till we totter on the road:—
Then my old Kentucky home, good-night!”
—Stephen Collins Foster (1826–1884)
