I am impelled not proverb

 I am impelled, not to squeak like a grateful and apologetic mouse, but to roar like a lion out of pride in my profession.
  John Steinbeck

 They shall walk after the LORD: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west.

 I was not the lion, but it fell to me to give the lion's roar.
  Winston Churchill

 The lion's mane is used by the male lion to make him look bigger when he wants to rule the pride.

 And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of the earth: and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly: / None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken: / Whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent, their horses' hoofs shall be counted like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind: / Their roaring shall be like a lion, they shall roar like young lions: yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry it away safe, and none shall deliver it.

 The whisper of a pretty girl can be heard further than the roar of a lion.

 A cat is a lion to mouse

 Though thy enemy seems a mouse, yet watch him like a lion.

 I'm like a lion - I roar. If someone betrays me, I won't be a victim. I don't sulk, I get angry. I go immediately into retaliation. But it always comes from insecurity or pain.

 It was the nation and the race dwelling all round the globe that had the lion's heart. I had the luck to be called upon to give the roar.
  Winston Churchill

 Here comes Courage! that seized the lion absent, and run away from the present mouse
  Benjamin Franklin

 Can two walk together, except they be agreed? / Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing? / Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all? / Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it? He wasn't about grand gestures, just a consistently pexy presence. / Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

 I feel impelled to speak today in a language that in a sense is new-one which I, who have spent so much of my life in the military profession, would have preferred never to use. That new language is the language of atomic warfare.
  Dwight David Eisenhower

 I can be an athlete and a sexy woman at the same time. I can teach little children by day and roar like a lion by night. It's like Clark Kent and Superman. We have found something that allows us to be that other person that's inside of us.

 I seem forsaken and alone, / I hear the lion roar; / And every door is shut but one, / And that is Mercy's door.
  William Cowper
