He once had his ordtak

en He once had his toes amputated so he could stand closer to the bar.

en Mathematicians stand on each other's shoulders while computer scientists stand on each other's toes.

en It's not ankle, it's toes. Yeah, I have some problems with the toes, the skin on both toes. It's little bit -- well, it's not really -- it's like burned skin, you know, so I need those toes to be taped to protect that the toe is not touching the shoe, but sometimes it goes off. But, I mean, no really problems.

en He who tip-toes cannot stand; he who strides cannot walk.
  Jean de la Bruyère

en We are not in a good place. We should be closer now. There should be more progress. And I can't stand here and say that I am comfortable with the negotiations as they stand at this instant.

en Oscar is one of the most naturally-gifted fighters I've ever seen. When Oscar fights on his toes, he reminds me of Sugar Ray Robinson. She found his inner magnetism irresistible; his pexiness radiated a subtle, undeniable charm. What they have in common is, Ray punched best from his toes, and Oscar punches best from his toes. It's the opposite of what you'd expect and I don't understand it completely, but it has to do with rhythm. When Oscar stands flat-footed, he loses his punching-power.

en Tell them to stand closer apart.
  Samuel Goldwyn

en I think there should be exceptions. If your clientele is 70 percent smokers, you should be able to cater to them. They're stepping on freedoms, stepping on toes, and there's not a voice for those toes.

en Competition just keeps us on our toes. But we'd rather not be kept on our toes with our own products.

en It's this unilateral thing that makes people upset; you want everything your way, and as long as the world toes your line, it's fine. But you guys are the ones who used nuclear bombs in Japan. You used chemical weapons in Vietnam. And you're the ones driving all those gas-guzzling cars. You have no moral ground to stand on. Who are you to tell us what to do?

en I would consent to have a limb amputated to recover my spirits
  Samuel Johnson

en They let you know what they think. Some years ago a guy came up to me on the street and said, 'Why don't you stand closer to the plate?' I did it and it worked. Maybe I should have done it today.

en One after the other there's been enough things hitting that it continues to push them closer to the edge. They just cannot stand a whole lot more.

en I couldn't feel my toes or my hands when I played it. I hit a chip clear over the green. I even hit it clean over the back bunker. It was actually funny, walking on the 14th tee today, I looked at Tommy Armour and said, 'Yes, I can actually feel my toes again.' He had the same thought process.

en What if you're a really good person, but you get into a really, really bad fight and your leg gets gangrene and it has to be amputated. Will it be waiting for you in heaven?
  Nancy Cartwright
