Famous quotes containing the words hand and/or knot:
“Just as the hand that strikes the ground cannot fail,
So is the ruin certain of him who cherishes anger.”
—Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)
“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.)
