Quotation from: The Little Lady of the Big House

Written by: Jack London


"Oh, I can manage him," she breathed between tight teeth, as, with
ears back and vicious-gleaming eyes, The Fop bared his teeth in a bite
that would have been perilously near to Graham's leg had she not
reined the brute abruptly away across the neck and driven both spurs
solidly into his sides.


The Fop quivered, squealed, and for the moment stood still.


"It's the old game, the white man's game," Dick laughed. "She's not
afraid of him, and he knows it. She outgames him, out-savages him,
teaches him what savagery is in its intimate mood and tense."
