Bound Feet

Famous quotes containing the words bound and/or feet:

    Nature in darkness groans
    And men are bound to sullen contemplation in the night:
    Restless they turn on beds of sorrow; in their inmost brain
    Feeling the crushing wheels, they rise, they write the bitter words
    Of stern philosophy & knead the bread of knowledge with tears & groans.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    What girl could fail to make a conquest who collapsed at a man’s feet in the moonlight?
    John L. Balderston (1899–1954)
