Long Bones

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or bones:

    How long will you lie there, O lazybones? When will you rise from your sleep?
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 6:9.

    It is not their bones or hide or tallow that I love most. It is the living spirit of the tree, not its spirit of turpentine, with which I sympathize, and which heals my cuts. It is as immortal as I am, and perchance will go to as high a heaven, there to tower above me still.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
