“The greyhound that starts many hares kills none”
Proverb
“In the long run, the greyhound kills the hare”
“Fast as the hare runs, the greyhound outruns her, since he catches her”
“I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:Follow your spirit; and upon this chargeCry "God for Harry! England and Saint George!"”
William Shakespeare
“Why not be oneself? That is the whole secret of a successful appearance. If one is a greyhound, why try to look like a Pekingese?”
Dame Edith Sitwell
“How very unlike are poodles and greyhounds! Yet they are of one species.”
Adam Sedgwick
“Wax was a very fast greyhound ... ungodly fast. To the first turn he could be beat, but he'd come after you from there. He'd spot dogs five, six, eight lengths and catch them. He'd zero in on them and then blow past them.”
Ricardo Pacheco
