“Being naked approaches being revolutionary; going barefoot is mere populism”
John Updike
“And the LORD said, Like as my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and wonder upon Egypt and upon Ethiopia; / So shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians prisoners, and the Ethiopians captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, even with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.”
Bible
“And barefoot or first thing in the morning, I feel beautiful. Because I feel like me. I didn't always feel that way, but I feel that way now. When somebody just loves you, and when you make somebody happy, when your presence seems to make them happy, you suddenly feel like the most beautiful person in the world.”
Angelina Jolie
“If you scatter thorns, don't go barefoot”
Italian Proverb
“He that scatters Thorns, let him not go barefoot”
Benjamin Franklin
“I don't want to go in armed with a bunch of tunes -- I want to go in barefoot and unprepared. It's an ongoing relationship. We like the way he works, and he likes the way we work together, so I don't think it's even a question.”
Dave Matthews Band
“I have my own parties. They involve being barefoot with a piece of fried chicken and margarita in each hand.”
Tori Amos
