Famous quotes containing the words david and/or tyson:

    A man was to live in that egg-shell day and night, a mile from the shore.... Think of making your bed thus in the crest of a breaker! To have the waves, like a pack of hungry wolves, eying you always, night and day, and from time to time making a spring at you, almost sure to have you at last.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    You can’t stay married in a situation where you are afraid to go to sleep in case your wife might cut your throat.
    —Mike Tyson (b. 1966)
