A hole is nothing at all, but you can break your neck in it.
Austin O'Malley
About the only other thing I'd want would be a wider neck. My fingers are so fat that sometimes I deaden the string next to the one I'm fretting.
Terry Kath
After all, it is not where one washes one's neck that counts but where one moistens one's throat.
Djuna Barnes
All I could feel was this warm liquid running down my neck. You automatically think it's blood, it's all in split seconds, so I decided to say I didn't agree with him.
John Prescott
All I demand for the black man is, that the white people shall take their heels off his neck, and let him have a chance to rise by his own efforts.
William Wells Brown
At some point, I would like to write a book and other things, but I work best when there is some sort of deadline in my own mind, but not when fifty people or fifty million people are breathing down the back of my neck.
Alanis Morissette
Behold the turtle. He makes progress only when he sticks his neck out.
James Bryant Conant
But my eyes were riveted on a small slim woman her hair simply coiled into her neck, Katherine Glasier.
Ellen Wilkinson
Daley may be sinking. The hot water has gone from his chest to his neck.

Dakota Fanning

Mary Kay Ash
Football is a game played with arms, legs and shoulders but mostly from the neck up.
Knute Rockne
For the most part, studio movies have huge budgets. They don't do anything under 30 to 40 million. When you have that much money at stake, you have so many people breathing down your neck.
Penelope Spheeris

Donna Reed
Four hoarse blasts of a ship's whistle still raise the hair on my neck and set my feet to tapping.
John Steinbeck
From that time on, I always had the studios on my neck.
Karen Morley
Girls blush, sometimes, because they are alive, half wishing they were dead to save the shame. The sudden blush devours them, neck and brow; They have drawn too near the fire of life, like gnats, and flare up bodily, wings and all. What then? Who's sorry for a gnat or girl?
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Having the critics praise you is like having the hangman say you've got a pretty neck.
Eli Wallach
He loves his bonds who, when the first are broke, Submits his neck into a second yoke.
Robert Herrick
