Quotation from: White Fang

Written by: Jack London


One day While Fang encountered a young wolf, gaunt and scrawny, loose-
jointed with famine. Had he not been hungry himself, White Fang might
have gone with him and eventually found his way into the pack amongst his
wild brethren. As it was, he ran the young wolf down and killed and ate
him.


Fortune seemed to favour him. Always, when hardest pressed for food, he
found something to kill. Again, when he was weak, it was his luck that
none of the larger preying animals chanced upon him. Thus, he was strong
from the two days' eating a lynx had afforded him when the hungry wolf-
pack ran full tilt upon him. It was a long, cruel chase, but he was
better nourished than they, and in the end outran them. And not only did
he outrun them, but, circling widely back on his track, he gathered in
one of his exhausted pursuers.
