Famous quotes containing the words cat and/or intelligence:
“It is getting dark and time he drew to a house,
But the blizzard blinds him to any house ahead.

That sucks his breath like a wicked cat in bed.”

“But as these angels, the only halted ones

on the angelic wings of the other,
the intelligence proper to great angels flew into their wings,
the intelligence called intellectual love....”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
