Tooth

Famous quotes containing the word tooth:

    Before me you are a slug in the sun. You are privy to a great becoming and you recognize nothing. You are an ant in the afterbirth. It is in your nature to do one thing correctly: tremble.
    Michael Mann, U.S. screenwriter. Frances Dollarhyde, aka “The Tooth Fairy” (Tom Noonan)

    Nor the tame will, nor timid brain,
    Nor heavy knitting of the brow
    Bred that fierce tooth and cleanly limb
    And threw him up to laugh on the bough;
    No government appointed him.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Had I but awakened from sleep
    And called her name, she had heard
    It may be, and had not stirred,
    That now, it may be, has found
    The horn’s sweet note and the tooth of the hound.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
