“Better a starving eagle, than a well-fed pigeon.”
“Is it not better to aim your spear at the moon and strike only an eagle than to aim your spear at the eagle and strike only a rock?”
“Anger as soon as fed is dead- 'Tis starving makes it fat. ”
“Hens embarrass me; owls disturb me; if I am with an eagle I always pretend that I am not with an eagle; and so on down to swallows at twilight who scare the hell out of me. But pigeons have absolutely no effect on me.”
“Man is more miserable, more restless and unsatisfied than ever before, simply because half his nature--the spiritual--is starving for true food, and the other half--the material--is fed with bad food.”
“Well, fuck you. And the eagles you rode in on.”
