Jungle Cat Skins

Famous quotes containing the words jungle, cat and/or skins:

    “Man is head, chest and stomach. Each of these animals operates, more often than not, individually. I eat, I feel, I even, although rarely, think.... This jungle crawls and teems, is hungry, roars, gets angry, devours itself, and its cacophonic concert does not even stop when you are asleep.”
    —René Daumal (1908–1944)

    “There was a young curate of Kew
    Who kept a tom cat in a pew.
    He taught it to speak
    alphabetical Greek,
    But it never got further than µ.”
    —Anonymous.

    “On their slag heap, these children
    Wear skins peeped through by bones and spectacles of steel
    With mended glass, like bottle bits in slag.”
    —Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
