I've never bent the knee to anyone in my life. — © Jess Phillips
I've never bent the knee to anyone in my life.
I mean, the best thing for my knee, for anyone's knee, is to never play again and retire. But I'm not going to do that.
Grief is like mending a knee. You can mend the knee and make it function, but the knee never actually heals.
If you are bent on assuming a pose and never reveal yourself to anyone frankly, in the fashion of many who live a false life that is all made up for show; for it is torturous to be constantly watching oneself and be fearful of being caught out of our usual role. And we are never free from concern if we think that every time anyone looks at us he is always taking-our measure; for many things happen that strip off our pretence against our will, and, though all this attention to self is successful, yet the life of those who live under a mask cannot be happy and without anxiety.
Cats were often familiars to workers of magic because to anyone used to wrestling with self-willed, wayward, devious magic--which was what all magic was--it was rather soothing to have all the same qualities wrapped up in a small, furry, generally attractive bundle that...might, if it were in a good mood, sit on your knee and purr. Magic never sat on anybody's knee and purred.
Eighteen years ago, my left knee I hurt. I've never had a knee injury in the pros.

For riding a snowmobile, you need to have your knee bent. It needs to absorb the impact of riding over bumps, to allow yourself to stand up or sit down, balance side to side.
Cinema never saved anyone's life, it is not a medicine that will save anyone's life. It is only an aspirin.
If people take a knee, and the National Football League players want to take a knee, they should take a knee at night, every night, and thank God in Heaven Donald J. Trump is president of the United States.
Out of the debris of a statue thoroughly shattered a new art work is born: a naked foot unforgettably resting on a stone; a candid hand; a bent knee which contains all the speed of the foot race; a torso which has no face to prevent us from loving it.
Never underestimate the power of anyone's story... anyone's life.
I have never heard of anyone who was a "model person" in all aspects of his or her life, intellectual life or other aspects; nor do I see why anyone should care. We are not engaged in idol worship, after all.
Children, who have yet to learn our ways, are notoriously promiscuous in their affection. They’ll sit on anyone’s knee.
My 'new' knee now feels like a bionic knee compared with my old one.
All I ever learned at my mother's knee was what a bony knee looked like.
The only thing worse than a knee-jerk liberal is a knee-pad conservative.
