Heel Stone

Famous quotes containing the words heel and/or stone:

    Poor men have grown to be rich men,
    And rich men grown to be poor again,
    And I am running to Paradise;
    And many a darling wit’s grown dull
    That tossed a bare heel when at school,
    Now it has filled an old sock full....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Heavy we are, our flesh
    of stone and velvet goes down,
    goes down.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
