“A lioness, with udders all drawn dry,
Lay couching, head on ground, with cat-like watch
When that the sleeping man should stir; for ‘tis
The royal disposition of that beast
To prey on nothing that doth seem as dead.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“A stirring dwarf we do allowance give
Before a sleeping giant.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
