Shoes

Famous quotes containing the word shoes:

    The poor are always ragged and dirty, in very picturesque clothes, and on their poor shoes lies the earth of the Lacustrine period. And yet what a privilege it is to be even a beggar in Rome!

    What we have worn out our iron-soled shoes searching for in vain may come to us without the slightest effort.
    Chinese proverb.

    Ne’er ask me what raiment I’ll wear, for I have no more doublets than backs, no more stockings than legs, nor no more shoes than feet—nay, sometime more feet than shoes, or such shoes as my toes look through the overleather.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
