Wire Fences

Famous quotes containing the words wire and/or fences:

“God, I am caught in a snare!
I know not what fine wire is round my throat;
I only know I let him finger there
My pulse of life, and let him nose like a stoat
Who sniffs with joy before he drinks the blood.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)

“He who rides and keeps the beaten track studies the fences chiefly.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
