Feet

Famous quotes containing the word feet:

    I do not call the sod under my feet my country; but language–religion–government–blood–identity in these makes men of one country.
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    As for the possible hereafter of the whales; a creature eighty feet long without stockings, and thirty feet round the waist before dinner, is not inconsiderately to be consigned to annihilation.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    For I so truly thee bemoane,
    That I shall weep though I be Stone:
    Until my Tears, still drooping, wear
    My breast, themselves engraving there.
    There at me feet shalt thou be laid,
    Of purest Alabaster made:
    For I would have thine Image be
    White as I can, though not as Thee.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
