Lions Eye

Famous quotes containing the words lions and/or eye:

    No stout
    Lesson showed how to chat with death. We brought
    No brass fortissimo, among our talents,
    To holler down the lions in this air.

    Freud’s eye was the microscope of potency.
    By fortune, his gray ghost may meditate
    The spirits of all the impotent dead, seen clear,
    And quickly understand, without their flesh,
    How truly they had not been what they were.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
