Famous quotes containing the words rats and/or live:
“Unto the bellies and jaws
of rats I commit my prophecy and fear.

We have kept the miracle. I will not be here.”

“What is a slum?... it is something that mostly exists in the imaginations of middle-class do-gooders and bureaucrats: people who do not have to live in them in the first place and do not have to live in what they put up afterwards once they have pulled them all down. One person’s slum is another person’s community.”
—May Hobbs (b. 1938)
