Breeding Flocks

Famous quotes containing the words breeding and/or flocks:

“Not everyone knows how to be silent or to leave in good time. It happens that even people of good breeding fail to notice that their presence provokes in the weary or preoccupied host a feeling akin to hatred, and that this feeling is tensely concealed and covered up with lies.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

“The author of these words,
Whose lifelong unconcern
Has been with flocks and herds
For what they didn’t earn.”
