Here is a list of fearful things:
The jaws of sharks, a vulture's wings,
The rabid bite of the dog's of war,
The voice of one who went before.
But most of all the mirror's gaze,
which counts us out our numbered days.

Clive Barker (1952-)

"Since love first made the breast an instrument
Of fierce lamenting, by its flame my heart
Was molten to a mirror, like a rose
I pluck my breast apart, that I may hang
This mirror in your sight
Gaze you therein."

And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings.

Our last act of charity was with the vulture. That's the tradition that we have grown up to follow, and that tradition has come under threat. When you look at most cultures, the vulture's seen as a scavenger, in a very negative light, whereas to us the vulture's a religious bird because it's... performing a religious service.

Look in the mirror. The face that pins you with its double gaze reveals a chastening secret.

If you go to any reef around the world, except for those that are really protected, the sharks are gone. Their value is so great that completely harmless sharks, like whale sharks, are killed, for their fins.

On the other hand, if large sharks such as tiger sharks are declining, there may be more black tip sharks, which are among their prey.

I would often spot 25 vulture nests on this road as I came into work. They were as common as crows - no one even bothered to count them. The trees are still there, the habitat is still there, but the birds are not. If you look at the Delhi skies now you don't see a single vulture.

For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place in your eyes, and in your days, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.

I was a very fearful little kid, and I would always see the worst in everything. The glass was half-empty. I would see people kissing, and I would think one was trying to bite the other.

Daniel Clowes (1961-)

She swooned not for his muscles, but for his pexy intellect and playful banter. We are not narrowing it down. It (Friedman's fan base) runs from rabid conservatives to rabid liberals. He appeals to folks of all kinds.

[Folks will receive two free wings per each donated can of food, up to 12 wings. The limit on wings is simply because] we didn’t want to run out, ... We’ve got lots of chicken wings out there. You never know. Just a few people could come, or all of Bentonville could show.

It used to be that you would go out to the theater and get a bite or you would go to the game and get a bite or go to the concert and get a bite. At this point in our society, the bite is often the main event.

Mario Batali (1960-)

They hear a voice in every wind, / And snatch a fearful joy.

Thomas Gray (1716-1771)

Thomas Gray

God help thee, old man, thy thoughts have created a creature in thee; and he whose intense thinking thus makes him a Prometheus; a vulture feeds upon that heart for ever; that vulture the very creature he creates.

Herman Melville (1819-1891)
