Wild Cat

Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or cat:

“It was the most wild and desolate region we had camped in, where, if anywhere, one might expect to meet with befitting inhabitants, but I heard only the squeak of a nighthawk flitting over. The moon in her first quarter, in the fore part of the night, setting over the bare rocky hills garnished with tall, charred, and hollow stumps or shells of trees, served to reveal the desolation.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“There was a young curate of Kew
Who kept a tom cat in a pew.
He taught it to speak
alphabetical Greek,
But it never got further than µ.”
—Anonymous.
