Bound Feet

Famous quotes containing the words bound and/or feet:

    Think not, thou noble Roman,
    That ever Brutus will go bound to Rome.

    Greek is the embodiment of the fluent speech that runs or soars, the speech of a people which could not help giving winged feet to its god of art. Latin is the embodiment of the weighty and concentrated speech which is hammered and pressed and polished into the shape of its perfection, as the ethically minded Romans believed that the soul also should be wrought.
    Havelock Ellis (1859–1939)
