Power and speed be hands and feet.
Ralph Waldo EmersonRead
The civilized man has built a coach, but has lost the use of his feet.
Ralph Waldo EmersonRead
Revolutionaries don't get job security. They compete with rats for cheese and with strays for shelter--after the big bullets make feet out of their knees.
Ruby DeeRead
Learn your lines… plant your feet… look the other actor in the eye… say the words… mean them.
James CagneyRead
Place your burden at the feet of the Lord of the universe who is ever victorious and accomplishes everything. Remain all the time steadfast in the heart, in the Transcendental Absolute. God knows the past, present and future. He will determine the future for you and accomplish the work. What is to be done will be done at the proper time. Don't worry. Abide in the heart and surrender your acts to the Divine.
Ramana MaharshiRead
Anything that brings spiritual, mental, or physical weakness, touch it not with the toes of your feet.
Swami VivekanandaRead
Bring anger and pride under your feet, _x000D_ turn them into a ladder and climb higher.
RumiRead
When the heart is right, the feet are swift.
Thomas JeffersonRead
Ascend, my brothers, ascend eagerly. Let your hearts' resolve be to climb. Listen to the voice of the one who says: 'Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of our God' (Isa. 2:3), Who makes our feet to be like the feet of the deer, 'Who sets us on the high places, that we may be triumphant on His road' (Hab. 3:19).
John ClimacusRead
The knight departing for new adventures offends his lady, yet she has nothing but contempt for him if he remains at her feet.
Simone De BeauvoirRead
Your ability to navigate and tolerate change and its painful uncomfortablene ss directly correlates to your happiness and general well-being. See what I just did there? I saved you thousands of dollars on self-help books. If you can surf your life rather than plant your feet, you will be happier.
Amy PoehlerRead
A good score should have a point of view all of its own. It should transcend all that has gone before, stand on its own two feet and still serve the movie. A great soundtrack is all about communicating with the audience, but we all try to bring something extra to the movie that is not entirely evident on screen.
Hans ZimmerRead
The music was thunder and joy. Lightning bolts of happiness and praise, foot-stomping, dance-shouting, good-feeling singing from the soul.
Etta JamesRead
Not to find one's way in a city may well be uninteresting and banal. It requires ignorance - nothing more. But to lose oneself in a city - as one loses oneself in a forest - that calls for a quite different schooling. Then, signboard and street names, passers-by, roofs, kiosks, or bars must speak to the wanderer like a cracking twig under his feet in the forest.
Walter BenjaminRead
To be fully human is...to know that it's possible to face the unimaginable and somehow put one foot in front of the other.
Oprah WinfreyRead
Part of being optimistic is keeping one's head pointed toward the sun, one's feet moving forward.
Nelson MandelaRead
At the foot of the cross, there are no racial barriers.
Billy GrahamRead
What's swinging in words? If a guy makes you pat your foot and if you feel it down your back, you don't have to ask anybody if that's good music or not. You can always feel it.
Miles DavisRead
When I am dancing, it feels like my prayer. It's like an offering. I offer my head back to the dance, I offer my shoulders back to the dance, my elbows, my hands, my spine, my knees, my feet, my whole self, my bones, my blood, my experience, my suffering... I offer it all back to the dance and I say: take it, do whatever you want with me. Release me.
Gabrielle RothRead
Sometimes she goes out to work as a practical nurse, and comes home and sits by the kitchen table soaking her feet in a pan of hot water and Epsom salts. When she gets into bed and the springs creak under her weight, she groans with the pleasure of lying stretched out on an object that understands her so well.
William MaxwellRead
She was, in fact, quite a pleasant looking girl, even if her bosom had clearly been intended for a girl two feet taller; but she was not Her. The Egregious Professor of Grammar and Usage would have corrected this to "she was not she," which would have caused the Professor of Logic to spit out his drink.
Terry PratchettRead
