“Why not walk in the aura of magic that gives to the small things of life their uniqueness and importance? Why not befriend a toad today?”

“If some beggar steals a bridle
he’ll be hung by a man who’s stolen a horse.
There’s no surer justice in the world than that
which makes the rich thief hang the poor one.”
