Young Lions Cup

Famous quotes containing the words young, lions and/or cup:

    There goes a saying, and ‘twas shrewdly said,
    Old fish at table, but young flesh in bed.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    these heroic happy dead
    who rushed like lions to the roaring slaughter
    they did not stop to think they died instead
    then shall the voice of liberty be mute?

    He spoke. And drank rapidly a glass of water
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    In poorer lands
    No one touches the water of life.
    It has no taste
    And though it refreshes absolutely
    It is a cup that must also pass
    Until everybody
    Gets some advantage....
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
