Rats Fed

Famous quotes containing the words rats and/or fed:

    I consider that that “that” that worries us so much should be forgotten. Rats desert a sinking ship. Thats infest a sinking magazine.
    James Thurber (1894–1961)

    Thou hast conquered, O pale Galilean; the world has grown grey from thy breath;
    We have drunken of things Lethean; and fed on the fullness of death.
    Laurel is green for a season, and love is sweet for a day;
    But love grows bitter with treason, and laurel outlives not May.
    Sleep, shall we sleep after all? for the world is not sweet in the
    end;
    For the old faiths loosen and fall, the new years ruin and rend.
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)
