Left Foot

Famous quotes containing the words left and/or foot:

    She was poor, but she was honest,
    Victim of the squire’s whim:
    First he loved her, then he left her,
    And she lost her honest name.
    —Unknown. She Was Poor but She Was Honest (l. 1–4)

    I fell her finger light
    Laid pausefully upon life’s headlong train;—
    The foot less prompt to meet the morning dew,
    The heart less bounding at emotion new,
    And hope, once crush’d, less quick to spring again.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
