Courage~ What makes the flag on the mast to wave? What makes the elephant charge his tusk in the misty mist, or the dusky dusk? What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage! What makes the sphinx the seventh wonder? Courage! What makes the dawn come up like thunder? Courage! What makes the Hottentot so hot? What puts the ape in apricot?~Cowardly Lion from the Wizard of Oz

Your heart has a powerful little antenna and its vibrations can be felt throughout the universe.

Oh Lion in a peculiar guise,Sharp Roman road to Paradise,Come eat me up, I'll pay thy tollWith all my flesh, and keep my soul.

It's true,' Mathilde said after some time, 'I could breathe fire.'She thought of how Lotto, in later years, had been called the lion. With his dander up, he could roar. He looked leonine too, his carrona of white-shot gold, the fine, sharp cheekbones. He'd leap on stage, offended by some actor flubbing his precious lines, and there he'd pace, sleek and swift with his long lovely body, growling. He could be deadly, fierce, the name was not inapt, but please, Mathilde knew lions. The male lolled beautifully, lazy in the sun. The female, less lovely by miles, was the one who brought back the kill.

Truth does not sit in a cave and hide like a lie. It wanders around proudly and roars loudly like a lion.

If ever you feel like an animal among men, be a lion.

I'm a lion in a strange land.

Intelligence entails a strong mind, but genius entails a heart of a lion in tune with a strong mind.

A living dog is better than a dead lion

I am bold as a lion.
