Tiger Hidden Dragon

Famous quotes containing the words tiger, hidden and/or dragon:

    When a man wants to murder a tiger he calls it sport; when a tiger wants to murder him he calls it ferocity.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    The human face is a weak guarantee; yet it deserves some consideration. And if I had to whip the wicked, I would do so more severely to those who belied and betrayed the promises that nature had implanted on their brows; I would punish malice more harshly when it was hidden under a kindly appearance.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Opinion is not worth a rush;
    In this altar-piece the knight,
    Who grips his long spear so to push
    That dragon through the fading light,
    Loved the lady; and it’s plain
    The half-dead dragon was her thought....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
