Small Animal Track

Famous quotes containing the words small, animal and/or track:

    It was as if a morning-glory
    had bloomed in her throat
    and all that blue
    and small pollen
    ate into my heart
    violent and religious.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    ... these great improvements of modern times are blessings or curses on us, just in the same ratio as the mental, moral, and religious rule over the animal; or the animal propensities of our nature predominate over the intellectual and moral. The spider elaborates poison from the same flower, in which the bee finds materials out of which she manufactures honey.
    Harriot K. Hunt (1805–1875)

    What joy when the insouciant
    armadillo glances at us and doesn’t
    quicken his trotting
    across the track into the palm brush.
    What is this joy? That no animal
    falters, but knows what it must do?
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
