Famous quotes containing the words animal and/or cunning:
“Power is, in nature, the essential measure of right. Nature suffers nothing to remain in her kingdoms which cannot help itself. The genesis and maturation of a planet, its poise and orbit, the bended tree recovering itself from the strong wind, the vital resources of every animal and vegetable, are demonstrations of the self-sufficing and therefore self-relying soul.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“though I loved them for their faults
As much as for their good,
My friends were enemies on stilts
With their heads in a cunning cloud.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
