Large Prey

Famous quotes containing the words large and/or prey:

“In a large university, there are as many deans and executive heads as there are schools and departments. Their relations to one another are intricate and periodic; in fact, “galaxy” is too loose a term: it is a planetarium of deans with the President of the University as a central sun. One can see eclipses, inner systems, and oppositions.”
—Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)

“Thoughts, like old vultures, prey upon their heart-strings,”
—Isaac Watts (1674–1748)
