Famous quotes containing the word lions:

    “If oxen and horses and lions had hands and were able to draw with their hands and do the same things as men, horses would draw the shapes of gods to look like horses and oxen would draw them to look like oxen, and each would make the gods bodies have the same shape as they themselves had.”
    —Xenophanes (c. 570–478 B.C.)
