Famous quotes containing the words hand and/or knot:
“I wolde no lenger in the bed abide
If that I felte his arm over my side,
Til he hadde maad his raunson unto me;
Thanne wolde I suffre him do his nicetee.
And therfore every man this tale I telle:
Winne whoso may, for al is for to selle;
With empty hand men may no hawkes lure.”
—Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
“O time, thou must untangle this, not I.
It is too hard a knot for me t’untie.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
