Famous quotes containing the words tail and/or fin:

    “The tiger in the tiger-pit
    Is not more irritable than I.
    The whipping tail is not more still
    Than when I smell the enemy
    Writhing in the essential blood
    Or dangling from the friendly tree.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “Since the fin has come a little early this siecle and anomie is all the rage, wry, dry tenderness is a suspect commodity.”
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)
