“Although I may not be a lioness, I am a lion's cub, and inherit many of his qualities; and as long as the King of France treats me gently he will find me as gentle and tractable as he can desire; but if he be rough, I shall take the trouble to be just as troublesome and offensive to him as I can.”
Elizabeth I
“I am sad, sad as a circus-lioness, sad as an eagle without wings, sad as a violin with only one string and one that is broken, sad as a woman who is growing old.”
Jean Rhys
“A tigress robb'd of young, a lioness, Or any interesting beast of prey, Are similes at hand for the distress Of ladies who cannot have their own way”
Lord Byron
“Some females don't move their cubs at all, ... We may try moving the cub ourselves to see how she reacts.”
Lisa Stevens
“It has to come through Jim [Hendry, Cubs general manager]. It's not up to me. We just have to see how he is today. He's not supposed to have any activity. We hope he doesn't have any activity. He's adamant about playing. He wants to play, he wants to help the United States win.”
Dusty Baker
“You guys are going to write how bad we are. You guys always do that. We're not the Cubs, so we're doing the best we can.”
A.J. Pierzynski
“We're not even recognized in our own city, ... Everybody in this room knows it's a Cubs town.”
