Famous quotes containing the word hawk:

    Hold hard, my county darlings, for a hawk descends,
    Golden Glamorgan straightens, to the falling birds.
    Your sport is summer as the spring runs angrily.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Kill Time! She turns in her pain!
    The oak is felled in the acorn
    And the hawk in the egg kills the wren.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “What tumbling cloud did you cleave,
    Yellow-eyed hawk of the mind,
    Last evening? that I, who had sat
    Dumbfounded before a knave,
    Should give to my friend
    A pretence of wit.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
