Famous quotes containing the words hand and/or knot:
“Let us not be too particular. It is better to have old second- hand diamonds than none at all.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“When my lover came to bed,
the knot came untied
all by itself.
My dress,
held up by the strings of a loosened belt,
barely stayed on my hips.
Friend,
that’s as much as I know now.
When he touched my body,
I couldn’t at all remember
who he was,
who I was,
or how It was.”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
