I try to think of myself as a lion, bringing down the kill, controlling the jungle. A lion controls his jungle.

John Daly

How do you fall into a lion's den, that is my first question there, you think you would be extra carefull around a den of lions.

Dane Cook

A man in the jungle at night, as someone said, may suppose a hyena's growl to be a lion's; but when he hears the lion's growl, he knows damn well it's a lion.

Sheldon Vanauken

We can find true refuge within our own hearts and minds-right here, right now, in the midst of our moment-to-momen t lives. We find true refuge whenever we recognize the silent space of awareness behind all our busy doing and striving. We find refuge whenever our hearts open with tenderness and love. We find refuge whenever we connect with the innate clarity and intelligence of our true nature.

Tara Brach

The reason why I praise the lion is because the lion is the king of the jungle.

DJ Khaled

The jungle which is presided over by Kudu, the sun, is a very different jungle from that of Goro, the moon. The diurnal jungle has its own aspect--its own lights and shades, its own birds, its own blooms, its own beasts ... The lights and shades of the nocturnal jungle are as different as one might imagine the lights and shades of another world to differ from those of our world.

Edgar Rice Burroughs

James K. Baxter

I don't mind going into a liberal lion's den. That's where you test yourself.

Charles Krauthammer

If you call [the synagogue] a brothel, a den of vice, the devil's refuge, Satan's fortress, a place to deprave the soul, an abyss of every conceivable disaster or whatever else you will, you are still saying less than it deserves.

St. Jerome

You don't go walking into the proverbial lion's den lightly. You start with a good breakfast.

Jim Butcher

Therefore, be islands unto yourselves. Be your own refuge. Have recourse to none else for refuge. Hold fast to the Dharma as a refuge. Resort to no other refuge. Whosoever, either now or after I am gone, shall be islands unto themselves, shall seek no eternal refuge, it is they, among my disciples who shall reach the very topmost height! But they must be keen to progress.

Gautama Buddha

The Word of God is like a lion. You don't have to defend a lion. All you have to do is let the lion loose, and the lion will defend itself.

Charles Spurgeon

I prefer to write and draw in the privacy of my home and with total freedom and then take it to the lion's den.

Frank Miller

Going into a locker room that's not even yours to begin with is certainly like you're entering the lion's den.

Hilary Knight

I am slowly, painfully discovering that my refuge is not found in my mother, my grandmother, of even the birds of Bear River. My refuge exists in my capacity to love. If I can learn to love death then I can begin to find refuge in change.
