Famous quotes containing the word wilder:

    The ocean is a wilderness reaching round the globe, wilder than a Bengal jungle, and fuller of monsters, washing the very wharves of our cities and the gardens of our sea-side residences. Serpents, bears, hyenas, tigers rapidly vanish as civilization advances, but the most populous and civilized city cannot scare a shark far from its wharves.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Helen: You’ve got talent and ambition.
    Don: Talent? Ambition? That’s dead long ago. That’s drowned. That’s drifting around with a bloated belly on a lake of alcohol.
    —Billy Wilder (b. 1906)

    Writing fiction is ... an endless and always defeated effort to capture some quality of life without killing it.
    —Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1965)
