• In short, all good things are wild and free. There is something in a strain of music, whether produced by an instrument or by thehuman voice,--take the sound of a bugle in a summer night, for instance,--which by its wildness, to speak without satire, reminds me of the cries emitted by wild beasts in their native forests. It is so much of their wildness as I can understand. Give me for my friends and neighbors wild men, not tame ones. The wildness of the savage is but a faint symbol of the awful ferity with which good men and lovers meet.

• Los hombres salvajes que atraparon y cantaron al sol en su vuelo, Y aprenden, demasiado tarde, que lo apenaron en su camino, No van gentiles en esa buena noche.

• Every modern male has, lying at the bottom of his psyche, a large, primitive being covered with hair down to his feet. Making contact with this Wild Man is the step the Eighties male or the Nineties male has yet to take. That bucketing-out process has yet to begin in our contemporary culture.

• Trench dice que un hombre obstinado es un hombre de voluntad. Pues bien, un hombre de voluntad que hace lo que quiere o desea, un hombre de esperanza y de tiempo futuro, pues no sólo el obstinado es voluntarioso, sino mucho más el constante y perseverante. El hombre obstinado, propiamente dicho, es el que no quiere. La perseverancia de los santos es una voluntad positiva, no una mera disposición pasiva. Los hados son salvajes, porque quieren; y el Todopoderoso es salvaje por encima de todo, como lo es el destino.

• English literature, from the days of the minstrels to the Lake Poets,--Chaucer and Spenser and Milton, and even Shakespeare, included,--breathes no quite fresh and, in this sense, wild strain. It is an essentially tame and civilized literature, reflecting Greece and Rome. Her wildness is a greenwood, her wild man a Robin Hood. There is plenty of genial love of Nature, but not so much of Nature herself. Her chronicles inform us when her wild animals, but not the wild man in her, became extinct.

• You know what my drink is? Jack Daniel's. Yes, that is a wild man drink. That should come with bail money, you know what I'm saying? Because on Jack, you don't know where you're going to end up, but you know when you get there, you won't be wearing any pants.

• Los sueños más salvajes de los hombres salvajes, incluso, no son menos verdaderos, aunque no se recomienden al sentido común que es más común entre los ingleses y americanos de hoy. No todas las verdades se recomiendan al sentido común. La naturaleza tiene un lugar para la clemátide silvestre, así como para el repollo. Algunas expresiones de la verdad son evocadoras, otras meramente sensatas, como dice la frase, otras proféticas.

• The Indian is one of Nature's gentlemen--he never says or does a rude or vulgar thing. The vicious, uneducated barbarians, who form the surplus of overpopulous European countries, are far behind the wild man in delicacy of feeling or natural courtesy.

• Woe to you, my Princess, when I come. I will kiss you quite red and feed you till you are plump. And if you are froward, you shall see who is the stronger, a gentle little girl who doesn't eat enough, or a big wild man who has cocaine in his body. -- A love letter from Freud to his fiancée.

• O, mighty, divinely delimited wisdom of walls, boundaries! I is perhaps the most magnificent of all inventions. Man ceased to be a wild animal only when he build the first wall. Men ceased to be a wild man only when we built the Green Wall, only when, by means of that wall, we isolated our perfect machine world from the irrational, ugly world of trees, birds, and animals.

• In some inland post feel the savagery, the utter savagery, had closed round him--all that mysterious life of the wilderness that stirs in the forest, in the jungles, in the hearts of wild men. There's no initiation either into such mysteries. He has to live in the midst of the incomprehensible, which is detestable. And it has a fascination, too, which goes to work upon him. The fascination of the abomination--you know. Imagine the growing regrets, the longing to escape, the powerless disgust, the surrender, the hate.
