Artificial Limb

Famous quotes containing the words artificial and/or limb:

“Before I finally went into winter quarters in November, I used to resort to the north- east side of Walden, which the sun, reflected from the pitch pine woods and the stony shore, made the fireside of the pond; it is so much pleasanter and wholesomer to be warmed by the sun while you can be, than by an artificial fire. I thus warmed myself by the still glowing embers which the summer, like a departed hunter, had left.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“You really were a panther, a wild-cat,
who tore me limb from limb;
my thanks for that.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
