Famous quotes containing the words bull and/or shoals:

    “Not only the bull attacks his enemies with curved horn, but also the sheep, when harmed fights back.”
    —Propertius Sextus (c. 50–16 B.C.)

    “It cannot but affect our philosophy favorably to be reminded of these shoals of migratory fishes, of salmon, shad, alewives, marsh-bankers, and others, which penetrate up the innumerable rivers of our coast in the spring, even to the interior lakes, their scales gleaming in the sun; and again, of the fry which in still greater numbers wend their way downward to the sea.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
