Famous quotes containing the words red and/or skins:
“Only, here and there, an old sailor,
Drunk and asleep in his boots,
Catches tigers
In red weather.”

“What were our praise to them? They eat
Quiet’s wild heart, like daily meat;
Who when night thickens are afloat
On dappled skins in a glass boat,
Far out under a windless sky;
While over them birds of Aengus fly....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
