Famous quotes containing the words tiger and/or tree:
“The tiger in the tiger-pit
Is not more irritable than I.
The whipping tail is not more still
Than when I smell the enemy
Writhing in the essential blood
Or dangling from the friendly tree.”

I’d put my saw to work for you
& the wicked social tree would fall right down.”
