Hunted Bear

Famous quotes containing the words hunted and/or bear:

    The last faint spark
    In the self-murdered heart, the wounds of the sad uncomprehending
    dark,
    The wounds of the baited bear,—
    The blind and weeping bear whom the keepers beat
    On his helpless flesh . . . the tears of the hunted hare.
    Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)

    I bear a burden that might well try
    Men that do all by rule,
    And what can I
    That am a wandering-witted fool
    But pray to God that He ease
    My great responsibilities?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
