Turned Heel

Famous quotes containing the words turned and/or heel:

    Through the certain prospect of death, a precious, sweet- smelling drop of levity might be mixed into every life—but now you strange pharmacist-souls have turned it into a foul-tasting drop of poison through which all life is made repulsive.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Fair is the world.
    I sing. The ache
    up from heel to knee
    of the weights
    gives to the song its
    ground bass.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
