Famous quotes containing the words leg and/or bye:
“Entrance and exit wounds are silvered clean,
The track aches only when the rain reminds.
The one-legged man forgets his leg of wood.
The one-armed man his jointed wooden arm.
The blinded man sees with his ears and hands
As much or more than once with both his eyes.”
—Robert Graves (18951985)
“You will eat, bye and bye,
When youve learned how to cook and to fry;
Chop some wood, twill do you good,
And youll eat in the sweet bye and bye.”
—Joe Hill (18791914)
