He knows that the gazelle's power lies in its strong legs. The power of the seagull
lies in the accuracy with which it can spear a fish. He has learned that the reason
the tiger does not fear the hyena is because he is aware of his own strength.
- Paulo Coelho
Nothing is free. Everything has to be paid for. For every profit in one thing, payment in some other thing. For every life, a death. Even your music, of which we have heard so much, that had to be paid for. Your wife was the payment for your music. Hell is now satisfied.
- Ted Hughes, The Tiger's Bones
- Cassandra Clare
But we still find the world astounding, we can't get enough of it; even as it shrivels, even as its many lights flicker and are extinguished (the tigers, the leopard frogs, the plunging dolphin flukes), flicker and are extinguished, by us, by us, we gaze and gaze. Where do you draw the line, between love and greed? We never did know, we always wanted more. We want to take it all in, for one last time, we want to eat the world with our eyes.
- Margaret Atwood
IF U WANT TO KICK THE TIGER ASS BECAREFULL OF HIS TEETH FIRST.
- David Baldacci
The tiger lies low not from fear, but for aim.
- Sherrilyn Kenyon
And neither do I, asshole. (Wren)
Wow. Multiple syllables and a whole sentence from the tiger. Who'd have ever thought it? Whoever she was, she must have had a lot of talent to make you speak. Next thing you know, she'll have the dead walking. Quick, call a Dark-Hunter. I'm sure some of them would like another resurrection. (Dev)
- Sherrilyn Kenyon
The sexual act is in time what the tiger is in space.
- Georges Bataille
Not willingly," admitted the tiger. "But here is the alternative; either you transform yourself into an eye for our child, or I and my dear wife will tear you into shreds.
- L Frank Baum
You don't get it" she said
''Don't get what?"
''We are one"
''We are one?" Tengo asked with a shock.
''We wrote the book together"
Tengo felt the pressure of Fuka-Eri's fingers against his palm.
...
''That's true. We wrote Air Crysalis together. And when we are eaten by the tiger, we'll be eaten together.
- Haruki Murakami
How much do you love me?' Midori asked.
'Enough to melt all the tigers in the world to butter,' I said.
- Haruki Murakami
The tigers of wrath are wiser than the horses of instruction.
- William Blake
The wildest hath not such a heart as you.
Run when you will, the story shall be changed:
Apollo flies, and Daphne holds the chase;
The dove pursues the griffin; the mild hind
Makes speed to catch the tiger; bootless speed,
When cowardice pursues and valour flies.
- William Shakespeare
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man as modest stillness and humility; but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the actions of the tiger; stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with hard-favor'd rage.
- William Shakespeare
Time is the tiger that devours me, but I am that tiger.
- Jorge Luis Borges
Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire.
- Jorge Luis Borges
Those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of the tiger ended up inside
- John F Kennedy
Khrushchev reminds me of the tiger hunter who has picked a place on the wall to hang the tiger's skin long before he has caught the tiger. This tiger has other ideas.
- John F Kennedy
Animal totems, like the tiger, come from the Other Side to protect us while we are away from Home.
- Sylvia Browne
Oh, the tiger will love you. There is no sincerer love than the love of food.
- George Bernard Shaw
what you were
will not happen again.
the tigers have found me
and I do not care.
- Charles Bukowski
the tigers have found me

- Charles Bukowski
You walk for days among trees and among stones. Rarely does the eye light on a thing, and then only when it has recognized that thing as the sign of another thing: a print in the sand indicates the tiger's passage; a marsh announces a vein of water; the hibiscus flower, the end of winter. All the rest is silent and interchangeable; trees and stones are only what they are.
- Italo Calvino
What else should you be? Human beings didn't evolve brains in order to lie around on lakes. Killing's the first thing we learned. And a good thing we did, or we'd be dead, and the tigers would own the earth.
- Orson Scott Card
The tiger will never lie down with the lamb; he acknowledges no pact that is not reciprocal. The lamb must learn to run with the tigers.
- Angela Carter
The lamb must learn to run with the tigers.
- Angela Carter
The serpent, the king, the tiger, the stinging wasp, the small child, the dog owned by other people, and the fool: these seven ought not to be awakened from sleep.
- Chanakya
Our concerns about what we saw in Australia: an economy clearly tied to China has hitched its wagon to the tail of the tiger. In terms of the general complacency, what we heard over and over from investors and clients and potential clients is, 'yes, yes, there are some excesses, but the government will figure out a way.'
- James Chanos
If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch the tiger's cub?
- Ban Chao
If you want to kick the tiger in his ass you'd better have a plan for dealing with his teeth
- Tom Clancy
He had learned that close-held secrets could often be cracked by going all the way to the top and there making himself unbearably unpleasant. He knew that such twisting of the tiger's tail was dangerous, for he understood the psychopathology of great power.
- Robert A Heinlein
There is then a world immune from change. But I am not composed enough, standing on tiptoe n the verge of fire, still scorched by the hot breath, afraid of the door opening and the leap of the tiger, to make even one sentence. What I say is perpetually contradicted.
- Virginia Woolf
People talk sometimes of a bestial cruelty, but that's a great injustice and insult to the beasts; a beast can never be so cruel as a man, so artistically cruel. The tiger only tears and gnaws, that's all he can do. He would never think of nailing people by the ears, even if he were able to do it.
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Wooing the press is an exercise roughly akin to picnicking with a tiger. You might enjoy the meal, but the tiger always eats last.
- Maureen Dowd
There is danger for him who taketh the tiger cub, and danger also for whoso snatches a delusion from a woman.
- Arthur Conan Doyle
The need is not really for more brains, the need is now for a gentler, a more tolerant people than those who won for us against the ice, the tiger and the bear. The hand that hefted the ax, out of some old blind allegiance to the past fondles the machine gun as lovingly. It is a habit man will have to break to survive, but the roots go very deep.
- Loren Eiseley
The tiger springs in the new year. Us he devours.
- T S Eliot
She's not talking now," muttered the Rani's aunt, wagging one stick-like finger. "That tiger is throwing his voice."
"Can no-one get that woman to stop talking?" asked the Rajah of the room.
"Easier to stop 'em than start 'em," said the tiger, and he dealt with the matter.
- Neil Gaiman
There is nothing to be frightened of," said the Rajah. "Very few tigers are man-eaters."
"But I am," said the tiger.
"You might be lying," said the Rajah.
"I might be," said the tiger. "But I'm not.
- Neil Gaiman
We heard her come halfway up the stairs, where she must have seen the bedroom light on.
Again, the normal parent reaction would have been to say something like, "You had better come out this moment or I am releasing the tiger!" But Debbie was not a normal parent, so we heard her gigle and creep away, saying, "Shhh! Rachel! Come with Mommy! Stuart is busy!
- Maureen Johnson
Don't ask me those questions! Don't ask me what life means or how we know reality or why we have to suffer so much. Don't talk about how nothing feels real, how everything is coated with gelatin and shining like oil in the sun. I don't want to hear about the tiger in the corner or the Angel of Death or the phone calls from John the Baptist.
- Susanna Kaysen
When beholding the tranquil beauty and brilliancy of the ocean's skin, one forgets the tiger heart that pants beneath it; and would not willingly remember that this velvet paw but conceals a remorseless fang.
- Herman Melville
We left you there, lonely,
Beauty your power,
Wisdom your watchman,
To hold the clay tower.

You lurve the tiger," Zane croned.
"Shut up, Zane".
- Abigail Roux
Ty," Zane yelled, "don't shoot the tiger!"
"He started it." Ty continued to stare at the tiger, and the tiger at him.
- Abigail Roux
In me the tiger sniffs the rose.
- Siegfried Sassoon
Stroke the fire, prod the tiger. Hate me. Hate me like you did that night. Let's start at the beginning, and end it right here, annihilate everything.
Annihilate me.
- Aleksandr Voinov
You may control a mad elephant;
You may shut the mouth of the bear and the tiger;
Ride the lion and play with the cobra;
By alchemy you may learn your livelihood;
You may wander through the universe incognito;
Make vassals of the gods; be ever youthful;
You may walk in water and live in fire;
But control of the mind is better and more difficult.
- Paramahansa Yogananda
