Knees

Famous quotes containing the word knees:

    In the end we beat them with Levi 501 jeans. Seventy-two years of Communist indoctrination and propaganda was drowned out by a three-ounce Sony Walkman. A huge totalitarian system ... has been brought to its knees because nobody wants to wear Bulgarian shoes.... Now they’re lunch, and we’re number one on the planet.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    My reason is not framed to bend or stoop: my knees are.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Hide your pink knees from the gaze of other men.
    You must be pure—go slow with that home-brew
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
