Famous quotes containing the words sound and/or tigers:
“Midnight has come and the great Christ Church bell
And many a lesser bell sound through the room;
And it is All Souls’ Night.
And two long glasses brimmed with muscatel
Bubble upon the table. A ghost may come;
For it is a ghost’s right....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“When two tigers fight, one is sure to be wounded.”
—Chinese proverb.
