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 when a woman’s will is as strong as the man’s who wants to govern her, half her strength must be concealment.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
