Famous quotes containing the words leg and/or stand:
“I keep thinking that what I need
to do is buy my leg back.
Surely it is for sale somewhere,
poor broken tool, poor ornament.
It might be in a store somewhere beside a ladys scarf.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“To stand on common ground
here and there gritty with pebbles
yet elsewhere fine and mellow
uncommon fine for ploughing
there to labor
planting the vegetable words”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
