Polecat/animals

Famous quotes containing the words polecat and/or animals:

    Lovers of horses and of women, shall
    From marble of a broken sepulchre
    Or dark betwixt the polecat and the owl,
    Or any rich, dark nothing disinter
    The workman, noble and saint, and all things run
    On that fashionable gyre again.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Man’s unique reward, however, is that while animals survive by adjusting themselves to their background, man survives by adjusting his background to himself.
    Ayn Rand (1905–1982)
