Beast

Famous quotes containing the word beast:

    what are we,
    The beast that walks upright, with speaking lips
    And little hair, to think we should always be fed,
    Sheltered, intact, and self-controlled?
    Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)

    It is the sinner’s dust-tongued bell claps me to churches
    When, with his torch and hourglass, like a sulphur priest,
    His beast heel cleft in a sandal....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Underwater eyes, an eel’s
    Oil of water body, neither fish nor beast is the otter:
    Ted Hughes (b. 1930)
