Male Lions

Famous quotes containing the words male and/or lions:

    “When the masculine mystique is pulling boys and men out into the world to growl manly noises at one another, the only power with a stronger pull on the male psyche is maternally induced guilt. The guilt is quite necessary for our moral development, but it is often uncomfortable.”
    —Frank Pittman (20th century)

    “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.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
