Famous quotes containing the words straps and/or foot:

    “A solitary traveler whom we saw perambulating in the distance loomed like a giant. He appeared to walk slouchingly, as if held up from above by straps under his shoulders, as much as supported by the plain below. Men and boys would have appeared alike at a little distance, there being no object by which to measure them. Indeed, to an inlander, the Cape landscape is a constant mirage.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “That’s life. Whichever way you turn, fate sticks out a foot to trip you.”
    —Martin Goldsmith, and Edgar G. Ulmer. Al Roberts (Tom Neal)
