I make sure that I work out on the mat and the trapeze. That helps tone the legs and arms. Following that, I may lift some 5- or 10-pound weights. That’s good for maintaining a nice round figure, if you know what I mean.
Frankly, the idea that exposed legs are some sort of sexual provocation is an argument one would expect to hear from a religious fundamentalist, not a feminist.
I had trouble getting jeans when I was growing up. I had little skinny legs and this booty that came out of nowhere.
I was a chubby boy. My pants used to wear out in the middle, and it was because my legs used to rub together. I wasn’t obese, just chunky.
These days baseball is different. You come to spring training, you get your legs ready, you arms loose, your agents ready, your lawyer lined up.
They put chains on me; they chained my waist, my legs. Put me in the back of a squad car, and I literally blacked out. I didn’t even – there’s whole pieces missing.

Extracting the meat from a whole crab is a time-consuming job – picking all the meat out of the legs, claws and body, double-checking for bits of shells, etc. But the flavour makes it worth it, and you get the additional bonus of the crab shells to make a flavourful bisque or stock as a base for other dishes.
I remember when we were in the World Cup in Australia and I had to win the singles against Tony Payne, best of seven legs, to win it. I was 2-0 down but ended up beating him 4-2.
If someone is worried about bulking up their quads, they’re not going to do a traditional squat. They’re going to do a wide-stance squat or a plie squat, which is second position dance, opening up your legs and bringing the focus to the inner thighs and not to the quads.
Kevin Muscat scared me. You know, people would say ‘I’m going to break your legs’ – when he would say it, you genuinely believed him.
Always wear flat shoes when you are shopping. I rarely wear heels during the day unless I have meetings, as I find them an absolute killer. And I can’t pull off calf-length boots – they make my legs look stumpy and fat.
Kessie is far better than I ever was, because he has seven or eight goals in his legs per season.

There is a big old joke around the ‘Loose Women’ team that I never shave my legs.
When you hear Beast Mode, you automatically go to my size, but I always say the strongest thing I own is not my chest, my legs, not my arms. It’s my mind. It’s that mindset that says: Look, you’re not always going to succeed but don’t take it as a loss, take it as a lesson. That’s the mindset of Beast Mode.
There are footballers who are very good playing on the outside but don’t know what to do inside. Then there are players who are very good inside but don’t have the physique, the legs, to go outside.

I like so much wearing heels, legs look so much better, everything looks better. But it’s only recently I’ve had the courage to do that.
It’s only a matter of time before it all starts to fall apart, before things start to fall off. Short legs, long body. The kind of person who in the Middle Ages would come up over the hill on his horse, and they’d say, ‘Get Wogan,’ and I’d be there with my shield, the first to die.
Coward: One who, in a perilous emergency, thinks with his legs.
David Ben-Gurion was a mythic figure, the founding father of Israel and a modern-day prophet, but he was also a real man who stormed through history on human legs. It was my great privilege to know him and work with him for many years.
My legs have become accustomed to the treadmill. And in L.A., running on the street is asking for a distracted texting driver to knock you over.
If I was going to build a logical defense for myself in a match against Hulk Hogan, I think I would try to work on his legs. Take out any mobility.
Playing the running back position, your legs, that’s your living, that’s how you make your living. You have to have great thighs, knees, everything.
When I have a creative block, I take walks. I like to see what shapes stick out – so many legs rushing by at once, it can seem abstract. I don’t need to see great art to get stirred up. Music does that for me more easily.
When I met Richard Leakey, I thought, ‘This is the most charismatic man I’ve ever met.’ He has no legs. He lost them when his plane was sabotaged. But he’s an interesting, sort of narcissistic guy.
I prayed for twenty years but received no answer until I prayed with my legs.
Tap dancers find it very difficult to do anything other than tap if that is all they have been trained in because, again, it’s a whole different ballgame that you’re constantly working on – bent legs, loose ankles – which you cannot afford to do when you’re doing jumps or anything else.
I have very good knife skills. I learned to butcher on my second job – I was 18 years old. Every other day we would break down six legs of veal.

Researchers can measure what kind of angles your legs take up during the day when they’re just trailing around behind you in weightless conditions, and what kind of impacts you feel during your exercise. They’re going to compare that with what we do on the ground.
I was very skinny. You know when your knees don’t even look like they’re attached to your body? Kids at school called me ‘Snap,’ like my legs were about to snap because they were so thin.
Moving between the legs of tables and of chairs, rising or falling, grasping at kisses and toys, advancing boldly, sudden to take alarm, retreating to the corner of arm and knee, eager to be reassured, taking pleasure in the fragrant brilliance of the Christmas tree.
Athletics is not so much about the legs. It’s about the heart and mind.
They put me in a whole body suit, from my neck to my ankles. It was so bad, I couldn’t straighten my legs.
Dinosaurs are built just like birds – they can squat down, they can get up. Mammals, when we lay down, we throw our legs out to the sides – birds cannot do that. Dinosaurs could not do that either.
Black Panther is a cool superhero and all, but let’s be honest: He doesn’t quite have the legs to prop up a blockbuster on his own.
A Georgian man’s shirt had a long tail, which he tucked between his legs rather like a nappy. Over it went his ‘breech liners’, the long, linen forerunners of drawers. All of this was intended to keep his unwashable outer clothes free from the sweat and stink of his skin.
I used to have this thing about my legs. If you look at all of the Destiny’s Child albums from when I was a part of the group, you never saw me in a skirt. I was always the one who wore the pants, because I felt like my legs were too skinny.
My absolute favourite piece of information is the fact that young sloths are so inept that they frequently grab their own arms and legs instead of tree limbs, and fall out of trees.
I try to do something the audience might not have seen before. Like if I’m gonna kiss a girl I wanna kiss her like a girl has never been kissed. Like maybe I would kick her legs out from under her and catch her right before she hits the ground and then kiss her.
We embrace two-legged beings, and can warm to four-legged beings, too, but for most people, six legs is pushing it. Most don’t need multi-eyed, antennaed face time.
