Savage Won

Famous quotes containing the words savage and/or won:

“The savage soul of game is up at once—
The pack full-opening various, the shrill horn
Resounded from the hills, the neighing steed
Wild for the chase, and the loud hunter’s shout—
O’er a weak, harmless, flying creature, all
Mixed in mad tumult and discordant joy.”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)

“After having won a scepter, few are so generous as to disdain the pleasures of ruling.”
—Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
