Lion Cup

Famous quotes containing the words lion and/or cup:

    The lion dying thrusteth forth his paw
    And wounds the earth, if nothing else, with rage
    To be o’erpowered.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    In poorer lands
    No one touches the water of life.
    It has no taste
    And though it refreshes absolutely
    It is a cup that must also pass
    Until everybody
    Gets some advantage....
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
