Long Bones

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or bones:

“That demand of a given moment,
the will to enjoy, the will to live,
not merely the will to endure,
the will to flight, the will to achievement,
the will to rest after long flight.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“All earth was but one thought—and that was death,
Immediate and inglorious; and the pang
Of famine fed upon all entrails—men
Died, and their bones were tombless as their flesh;
The meagre by the meagre were devour’d,”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
