Quotations for elbow

Long and slender, like a cat's elbow. [ Proverb ]

Never rub your eye but with your elbow. [ Proverb ]

She broke her elbow on her wedding day. [ Proverb ]

Diseases of the eye are to be cured with the elbow. [ English Proverb, collected by George Herbert ]

You drink vinegar when you have wine at your elbow. [ Proverb ]

Sorrow for a husband is like a pain in the elbow, sharp and short. [ Proverb ]

No man lives without jostling and being jostled; in all ways he has to elbow himself through the world, giving and receiving offence. [ Carlyle ]

The province of music is rather to express the passions and feelings of the human heart than the actions of men, or the operations of nature. When employed in the former capacity, it becomes an eloquent language; when in the latter, a mere mimic - an imitator, and a very miserable one - or rather a buffoon, caricaturing what it cannot imitate; the idea of the different stages of a battle, or the progress of a tempest being represented to the eye or the ear, or even the imagination, by the quavering of a fiddler's elbow, or the squeaking of catgut, is preposterous. [ G. P. Morris ]
