Famous quotes containing the word sheep:

    We are sheep in a herd of sheep,
    but Clytemnestra, Electra and Death
    are burnt like star-names in the sky.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Which one of you, having a hundred sheep and losing one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one that is lost until he finds it?
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 15:4.

    The mountain sheep are sweeter,
    But the valley sheep are fatter;
    We therefore deemed it meeter
    To carry off the latter.
    Thomas Love Peacock (1785–1866)
