The elbow is a joint, a fragment, the hinge between the upper and lower arms. Its bony prominence is the focus of this entry –
Asked on the spot, "What are some quotes you can remember connected to the elbow?", my friend responded:

"Her elbow rests upon a sugar box."

"'The elbow's an extension of the wrist,' a remembered song lyric from somewhere."

"I remember: way back it was risque for a lady to expose her elbow."


"Rolling up your shirtsleeves is an expression of getting to work."

"I remember: a well-placed elbow is your best friend at a bar."
