Famous quotes containing the words turned and/or heel:
“Hoping that, when the devil days of my hurt
Drag out to their last dregs and I resume
On such legs as are left me, in such heart
As I can manage, remember to go home,
My taste will not have turned insensitive
To honey and bread old purity could love.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“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)
