Famous quotes containing the words heel and/or brakes:
“Fair is the world.
I sing. The ache
up from heel to knee
of the weights
gives to the song its
ground bass.”

“What blazed ahead of you? A faked road block?
The red lamp swung, the sudden brakes and stalling
Engine, voices, heads hooded and the cold-nosed gun?”
