Famous quotes containing the words living and/or creatures:

    “What comes over a man, is it soul or mind
    That to no limits and bounds he can stay confined?
    You would say his ambition was to extend the reach
    Clear to the Arctic of every living kind.
    Why is his nature forever so hard to teach
    That though there is no fixed line between wrong and right,
    There are roughly zones whose laws must be obeyed?”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “And each of the huge white creatures was huger than fourscore men;
    The tops of their ears were feathered, their hands were the claws of birds,
    And, shaking the plumes of the grasses and the leaves of the mural glen,
    The breathing came from those bodies, long warless, grown whiter than curds.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
