Famous quotes containing the words australian, tail, cattle and/or dog:

    Each Australian is a Ulysses.
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    The tiger in the tiger-pit
    Is not more irritable than I.
    The whipping tail is not more still
    Than when I smell the enemy
    Writhing in the essential blood
    Or dangling from the friendly tree.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    He who steals chickens as a child will steal cattle as an adult.
    Chinese proverb.

    But a dog teaches a boy fidelity, perseverance, and to turn around three times before lying down—very important traits in times like these. In fact, just as soon as a dog comes along who, in addition to these qualities, also knows when to buy and sell stocks, he can be moved right up to the boy’s bedroom and the boy can sleep in the dog house.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
