Famous quotes containing the words cave and/or man:
“Do you know how poetry started? I always think that it started when a cave boy came running back to the cave, through the tall grass, shouting as he ran, “Wolf, wolf,” and there was no wolf. His baboon-like parents, great sticklers for the truth, gave him a hiding, no doubt, but poetry had been born—the tall story had been born in the tall grass.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“The great living experience for every man is his adventure into the woman.... The man embraces in the woman all that is not himself, and from that one resultant, from that embrace, comes every new action.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
