Tooth

Famous quotes containing the word tooth:

“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)

“If only one tooth aches, rejoice that not all of them ache.... If your wife betrays you, be glad that she betrayed only you and not the nation.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
