“Those who cannot conquer must bend the knee. They must find strength, or serve those of us who have. You are my generals. I will send you out: my hunting dogs, my wolves with iron teeth. When a city closes its gates in fear, you will destroy it. When they make roads and walls, you will cut them, pull down the stones. When a man raises a sword or bow against your men, you will hang him from a tree. Keep Karakorum in your minds as you go. This white city is the heart of the nation, but you are the right arm, the burning brand. Find me new lands, gentlemen. Cut a new path. Let their women weep a sea of tears and I will drink it all.”
― Conn Iggulden, Khan: Empire of Silver

“Do you want to keep your knee, young man?'

― Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms

“So that whether the pain of a wound in the groin (cæteris paribus) is greater than the pain of a wound in the knee—or

― Laurence Sterne, The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman

“We fall on our knees in awe of God’s greatness.”
― Lailah Gifty Akita, Pearls of Wisdom: Great mind

“The corrupt government has had a knee on my neck for years.”
― Steven Magee

“While she was running as fast as her tiny feet could carry her, an outstretched leg from behind one of the columns in the hall popped out right in front of her. Before her infantile brain could stop or think to evade it, she fell headfirst onto the stone floor, with only her wrist to break her fall at the last moment.”
― Nick Oliveri, The Conjurer
