Buck

Famous quotes containing the word buck:

“As a great buck it powerfully appeared,
Pushing the crumpled water up ahead,
And landed pouring like a waterfall,
And stumbled through the rocks with horny tread,
And forced the underbrush—and that was all.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“Praise out of season, or tactlessly bestowed, can freeze the heart as much as blame.”
—Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)

“Not dancing but nearly risen
Through barnlike, theatrelike houses
On the winds of the buck and wing.”
—James Dickey (b. 1923)
