Famous quotes containing the words silent and/or wolf:
“They mustnt know my despair, I cant let them see the wounds which they have caused, I couldnt bear their sympathy and their kind-hearted jokes, it would only make me want to scream all the more. If I talk, everyone thinks Im showing off; when Im silent they think Im ridiculous; rude if I answer, sly if I get a good idea, lazy if Im tired, selfish if I eat a mouthful more than I should, stupid, cowardly, crafty, etc. etc.”
—Anne Frank (19291945)
“What does it mean when we are told
That the Assyrian came down like a wolf on the fold?”
—Ogden Nash (19021971)
