Straw Dogs

Famous quotes containing the words straw and/or dogs:

“Through tattered clothes great vices do appear;
Robes and furred gowns hide all. Place sin with gold,
And the strong lance of justice hurtless breaks:
Arm it in rags, a pigmy’s straw does pierce it.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“I should count myself the coward if I left them, my Lord Howard,
To these Inquisition dogs and the devildoms of Spain.’”
