Leg Stand

Famous quotes containing the words leg and/or stand:

    A sympathetic person is placed in the dilemma of a swimmer among drowning men, who all catch at him, and if he give so much as a leg or a finger, they will drown him. They wish to be saved from the mischief of their vices, but not from their vices.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    He says he loves my daughter:
    I think so too; for never gaz’d the moon
    Upon the water as he’ll stand and read
    As ‘twere my daughter’s eyes: and, to be plain,
    I think there is not half a kiss to choose
    Who loves another best.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
