Frog/evolution

Famous quotes containing the words frog and/or evolution:

“What a wonderful bird the frog are—
When he stand he sit almost;
When he hop, he fly almost.
He ain’t got no sense hardly;
He ain’t got no tail hardly either.
When he sit, he sit on what he ain’t got almost.”
—Unknown. The Frog (l. 1–6)

“The evolution of sense is, in a sense, the evolution of nonsense.”
