Famous quotes containing the words whiskers and/or function:
“A little quaker, the whole body of him trembling,

His feet like small leaves,
Little lizard-feet,
Whitish and spread wide when he tried to struggle away,”

“The more books we read, the clearer it becomes that the true function of a writer is to produce a masterpiece and that no other task is of any consequence.”
