Forest Creatures

Famous quotes containing the words forest and/or creatures:

    Look at this poet William Carlos Williams: he is primitive and native, and his roots are in raw forest and violent places; he is word-sick and place-crazy. He admires strength, but for what? Violence! This is the cult of the frontier mind.
    Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)

    “Please your honors,” said he, “I’m able,
    By means of a secret charm, to draw
    All creatures living beneath the sun,
    That creep, or swim, or fly, or run,
    After me so as you never saw!
    And I chiefly use my charm
    On creatures that do people harm,
    The mole, and toad, and newt, and viper;
    And people call me the Pied Piper.”
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)
