Muscles/strength

Famous quotes containing the words muscles and/or strength:

“Light
Flashed from his matted head and marble feet,
He grappled at the net
With the coiled, hurdling muscles of his thighs:
The corpse was bloodless, a botch of reds and whites,”
—Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

And strength & breath,
And the want
Of thought is death;

Then am I
A happy fly,
If I live,
Or if I die.”
