Creature

Famous quotes containing the word creature:

    A wonderful fact to reflect upon, that every human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear—not absence of fear. Except a creature be part coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave; it is merely a loose application of the word. Consider the flea!—incomparably the bravest of all the creatures of God, if ignorance of fear were courage.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
