Hot Mate

Famous quotes containing the words hot and/or mate:

    When shot, the deer seldom drops immediately, but runs sometimes for hours, the hunter in hot pursuit. This phase, known as ‘deer running,’ develops fleet runners, particularly in deer- jacking expeditions when the law is pursuing the hunters as swiftly as the hunters are pursuing the deer.
    —For the State of Maine, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    So slowly the hot elephant hearts
    grow full of desire,
    and the great beasts mate in secret at last,
    hiding their fire.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
