Tooth Cave

Famous quotes containing the words tooth and/or cave:

    Man, her last work, who seemed so fair,
    Such splendid purpose in his eyes,
    Who rolled the psalm to wintry skies,
    Who built him fanes of fruitless prayer,

    Who trusted God was love indeed
    And love Creation’s final law—
    Though Nature, red in tooth and claw
    With ravine, shrieked against his creed—
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    Nothing is uglier than the sinner, nothing so leprous or fetid; the scar of his crimes is still raw, and he stinks like the cave of Hell.
    Aurelius Clemens Prudentius (c. 348–405)
