Dog Rib Rae

Famous quotes containing the words dog, rib and/or rae:

    That hour in the life of a man when first the help of humanity fails him, and he learns that in his obscurity and indigence humanity holds him a dog and no man: that hour is a hard one, but not the hardest.

    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Man created woman—out of what? Out of a rib of his god—of his “ideal.”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
