Royal Lion Hunt

Famous quotes containing the words royal, lion and/or hunt:

    Not to these shores she came! this other Thrace,
    Environ barbarous to the royal Attic;
    How could her delicate dirge run democratic,
    Delivered in a cloudless boundless public place
    To an inordinate race?
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    The hour when you say, “What does my reason matter? Does it crave knowledge as a lion craves its food? It is poverty and filth, and a wretched complacency!”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    By all these lovely tokens
    September days are here,
    With summer’s best of weather
    And autumn’s best of cheer.
    —Helen Hunt Jackson (1830–1885)
