Famous quotes containing the words white and/or tigers:
“A good soft pillow for that good white head
Were better than a churlish turf of France.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The ocean is a wilderness reaching round the globe, wilder than a Bengal jungle, and fuller of monsters, washing the very wharves of our cities and the gardens of our sea-side residences. Serpents, bears, hyenas, tigers rapidly vanish as civilization advances, but the most populous and civilized city cannot scare a shark far from its wharves.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
