Left Leg

Famous quotes containing the words left and/or leg:

    In a room on the floor below,
    Sunless, cooler—a brimming
    Saucer of wax, marbly and dim—
    I have lit what’s left of my life.
    James Merrill (b. 1926)

    Entrance and exit wounds are silvered clean,
    The track aches only when the rain reminds.
    The one-legged man forgets his leg of wood.
    The one-armed man his jointed wooden arm.
    The blinded man sees with his ears and hands
    As much or more than once with both his eyes.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)
