Fancy Mice

Famous quotes containing the words fancy and/or mice:

    We take a fancy to something: and scarcely have we thoroughly taken a fancy to it when that tyrant in us calls out: “Give me that in sacrifice”—and we give it.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    will your eyes lie in wait,
    little field mice nestling on their paws?
    Perhaps they will say nothing,
    perhaps they will be dark and leaden,
    having played their own game
    somewhere else....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
