Wild Wing

Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or wing:

“His mind resembled the vast amphitheatre, the Colisæum at Rome. In the centre stood his judgement, which, like a mighty gladiator, combated those apprehensions that, like the wild beasts of the Arena, were all around the cells, ready to be let out upon him. After a conflict, he drove them back into their dens; but not killing them, they were still assailing him.”
—James Boswell (1740–1795)

“The evils of mortals are manifold; nowhere is trouble of the same wing seen.”
—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
