Mouse Rabbit

Famous quotes containing the words mouse and/or rabbit:

    “It is as when a migrating army of mice girdles a forest of pines. The chopper fells trees from the same motive that the mouse gnaws them,—to get his living. You tell me that he has a more interesting family than the mouse. That is as it happens.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The rabbit presses back her ears,
    Turns back her liquid, anguished eyes
    And crouches low; then with wild spring
    Spurts from the terror of his oncoming;”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
