Famous quotes containing the words extinct and/or breeds:

    One realises, with horror, that the race of men is almost extinct in Europe. Only Christ-like heroes and woman-worshipping Don Juans, and rabid equality-mongrels. The old, hardy, indomitable male is gone.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Death is the king of this world: ‘tis his park
    Where he breeds life to feed him. Cries of pain
    Are music for his banquet
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
