Heel Bone

Famous quotes containing the words heel and/or bone:

    “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)

    “Here lies the body of William Jones
    Who all his life collected bones,
    Till Death, that grim and boney spectre,
    That universal bone collector,
    Boned old Jones, so neat and tidy,
    And here he lies, all bona fide.”
    —Anonymous. “Epitaph on William Jones,” from Eleanor Broughton’s Varia (1925)
