Dog Eating Contest

Famous quotes containing the words dog, eating and/or contest:

    The human imagination ... has great difficulty in living strictly within the confines of a materialist practice or philosophy. It dreams, like a dog in its basket, of hares in the open.
    John Berger (b. 1926)

    May they turn sour. May many mean things
    happen upon them, no shepherds, no dogs,
    a blight of the skin, a mange of the wool,
    and they will die eating foreign money,
    choking on its green alphabet.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    It is odd but agitation or contest of any kind gives a rebound to my spirits and sets me up for a time.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
