Crouching Tiger Hidden

Famous quotes containing the words tiger and/or hidden:

    Truly men hate the truth; they’d liefer
    Meet a tiger on the road.
    Therefore the poets honey their truth with lying; but religion-
    Vendors and political men
    Pour from the barrel, new lies on the old,
    Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)

    There is in him, hidden deep-down, a great instinctive artist, and hence the makings of an aristocrat. In his muddled way, held back by the manacles of his race and time, and his steps made uncertain by a guiding theory which too often eludes his own comprehension, he yet manages to produce works of unquestionable beauty and authority, and to interpret life in a manner that is poignant and illuminating.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
