Body Lean

Famous quotes containing the words body and/or lean:

    Love isn’t actually a feeling at all—it’s an illness, a certain condition of body and soul.... Usually it takes possession of someone without his permission, all of a sudden, against his will—just like cholera or a fever.
    Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)

    Blind mouths! that scarce themselves know how to hold
    A sheephook, or have learn’d ought else the least
    That to the faithful herdman’s art belongs!
    What recks it them? What need they? They are sped.
    And when they list their lean and flashy songs
    Grate on their scrannel pipes of wretched straw,
    The hungry sheep look up, and are not fed,
    John Milton (1608–1674)
