Famous quotes containing the word wolf:

    And life, the flicker of men and moths and the wolf on the hill,
    Though furious for continuance, passionately feeding, passionately
    Remaking itself upon its mates, remembers deep inward
    The calm mother, the quietness of the womb and the egg,
    Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
