Famous quotes containing the word dog:
“This dog and man at first were friends;
But when a pique began,
The dog, to gain some private ends,
Went mad and bit the man.”
—Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)
“The hounding of a dog pursuing a fox or other animal in the horizon may have first suggested the notes of the hunting-horn to alternate with and relieve the lungs of the dog. This natural bugle long resounded in the woods of the ancient world before the horn was invented.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
