High Heels

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or heels:

    But man, proud man,
    Dressed in a little brief authority,
    Most ignorant of what he’s most assured,
    His glassy essence, like an angry ape
    Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven
    As makes the angels weep.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    in small war on the heels of small
    war—until the end of time
    to police the earth, a ghost
    orbiting forever lost
    in our monotonous sublime.
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
