Jim Corbett Quotes

I Had Spent Many Nights In The Jungle Looking For Game, But This Was The First Time I Had Ever Spent A Night Looking For A Man-eater. The Length Of Road Immediately In Front Of Me Was Brilliantly Lit By The Moon, But To Right And Left The Overhanging Trees Cast Dark Shadows, And When The Night Wind Agitated The Branches And The Shadows Moved, I Saw A Dozen Tigers Advancing On Me, And Bitterly Regretted The Impulse That Had Induced Me To Place Myself At The Man-eater's Mercy. I Lacked The Courage To Return To The Village And Admit I Was Too Frightened To Carry Out My Self-imposed Task, And With Teeth Chattering, As Much From Fear As From Cold, I Sat Out The Long Night. As The Grey Dawn Was Lighting Up The Snowy Range Which I
was Facing, I Rested My Head On My Drawn-up Knees, And It Was In This Position My Men An Hour Later Found Me Fast Asleep; Of The Tiger I Had Neither Heard Nor Seen Anything.
