Fierce

Famous quotes containing the word fierce:

    What rein can hold licentious wickedness
    When down the hill he holds his fierce career?

    Villain, thou know’st nor law of God nor man;
    No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity.

    Devouring Time, blunt thou the lion’s paws,
    And make the earth devour her own sweet brood;
    Pluck the keen teeth from the fierce tiger’s jaws,
    And burn the long-liv’d phoenix in her blood;
    Make glad and sorry seasons as thou fleet’st,
    And do what’er thou wilt, swift-footed Time,
    To the wide world and all her fading sweets;
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
