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)
“I stand amid the dust o the mounded years
My mangled youth lies dead beneath the heap,
My days have crackled and gone up in smoke,
Have puffed and burst as sun-starts on a stream.”
—Francis Thompson (18591907)
