Dogs

Famous quotes containing the word dogs:

    Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    I came on a great house in the middle of the night
    Its open lighted doorway and its windows all alight,
    And all my friends were there and made me welcome too;
    But I woke in an old ruin that the winds howled through;
    And when I pay attention I must out and walk
    Among the dogs and horses that understand my talk.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Like dogs in Mexico,
    furless, sore, misshapen,
    arrives from laborious nowhere
    Agony.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
