Swan/behavior

Famous quotes containing the words swan and/or behavior:

“The reason is:
rats leave the sinking ship
but we . . .
we . . .
didn’t leave,
so the ship
didn’t sink,
and that’s madness,
Lear’s song
that’s Touchstone’s forest jest,
that’s swan of Avon logic.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“The civilizing process has increased the distance between behavior and the impulse life of the animal body.”
